Either cut off circles to bake, or wrap each log in baking paper and freeze. Preheat oven to 180°C/160°C fan-forced.
Line 2 baking trays with baking paper. If frozen, remove logs from freezer 15 minutes before slicing.
Slice into 1.5cm-thick rounds. Place rounds, 3cm apart, on prepared trays.
Bake for 12 to 14 minutes or until light golden. Cool on trays for 5 minutes.
Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Serve dusted with confectioners' sugar.
