{Embossed cookies}

Preparation time: 20 min

Cooking time: 15 min

Yield: 24 cookies

Ingredients

  • 400 g flour
  • 125 g sugar
  • 200 g butter, cold and diced
  • 1 egg
  • 1 pinch of salt

Directions

  1. In a medium mixing-bowl, mix together all ingredientes to form a ball.
  2. Divide the dough in two or three, and gather each portion into a slightly flattened ball.
  3. Working with one ball of dough at a time, roll it out between two baking papers to a thickness of maximum 0,3 cm.
  4. Place an embossing mat (or crochet mat) on top of the dough, and using rolling pin, lightly roll over mat to imprint dough. Carefully remove mat.
  5. Freeze dough for 30 minutes, or place on the refrigerator for a couple of hours.
  6. Use a round cookie cutter to cut out cookies, and transfer them on a prepared baking sheet. Freeze for another 15 minutes.
  7. Preheat oven to 350ºF and slip cookies into the oven to bake for 10 minutes, until just slightly golden at the edges. Transfer on a rack to cool completely, and keep in a tin box in a dry place

NOTES:

  • If you do not have an embossing mat, or crochet mat, you might used an embossed glass, or a decorative rolling pin
  • To keep from burning the bottom of your cookies or over baking, use a double pan
  • Make chocolate cookies by substituting 50 g flour for 50 g cocoa powder
