Notes

  • The dough must rest at least 2 hours and the more it chill the more it will be tasty and full of flavour.
  • The butter should be cold so the dough won't be sticky and too much mushy, so it wont crack when transfer it.
  • The egg should be at room tempereture.
  • Use all purpose flour in this recipe, no need for self raising flour and adding baking powder to this dough.
  • Fill cookies after completely cool, with your favourite jam flavour or with chocolate.
  • You can reserve the dough for 72 hours in refrigerator.
    After baking cookies, consume before 14 days, because after that the cookies will start to be mushy and lost their flavour.
