The reason this one is so great is that they are fridge biscuits. You make the dough, then leave it in the fridge until you need it. You can leave them in the fridge for weeks and always have freshly baked biscuits ready 10-15 minutes after guests arrive! They are great with a cup of tea/coffee. They are also brilliant with all ice cream and puddings etc. My favourite is the lemon variant.
