<\/strong>250g 00 flour
125g cold butter, cut into cubes
100g icing sugar
1 whole egg
1 pinch of salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract (or the seeds of a vanilla pod)
Icing sugar for decorating (optional)
Instructions<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
Shape the dough into a ball, wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
Shape the cookies:
Preheat the oven to 180\u00b0C and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough using a rolling pin until it is about 5mm thick.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Use a heart-shaped cookie cutter to cut out the cookies and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake the cookies:
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool completely on a wire rack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Decorate the cookies:
<\/strong>Once cooled, you can decorate the cookie hearts with powdered sugar, royal icing, melted chocolate or other decorations of your choice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cocoa variant: For chocolate biscuit hearts, you can add 20-30 g of bitter cocoa powder to the flour.
Filling: You can make sandwich biscuits with a filling of jam, hazelnut cream or chocolate ganache.
Storage: Shortbread biscuits can be stored in an airtight container for several days, maintaining their fragrance and crunchiness.
Have fun preparing them and enjoy your meal!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
