Recipe for shortcrust pastry for cookies
By the way, if you believe that homemade solid shortcrust pastry is tastier than store-bought, we’ll explain how to make it, especially for our cookies.
Ingredients:
- Premium wheat flour – 10 ounces (280 grams)
- Confectioner’s butter – 7 ounces (200 grams)
- Powdered sugar – 4 ounces (110 grams)
- Egg yolks – 2 pieces
- A pinch of salt
How to cook:
Bring the butter to room temperature so that it’s soft. Mix in the egg yolks and powdered sugar. Add the flour, knead the dough, and only then add the salt. Shortcrust pastry is usually baked at a temperature of 392 °F (200 °C) until it gets a confident golden crust. This usually takes no more than 10 minutes.
We hope that at least once in your life you’ve baked cookies in the oven, and the baking process itself is familiar to you. By the way, you can use any kind of nuts for our cookies: walnuts, cashews, peanuts. This will make our bears look even more interesting. So, roll out the dough to a thickness of 0.2 inches (0.5 cm) and cut out the cookies using the ‘Bear’ mold, then place them on a baking sheet.
Next, while you’re dealing with the oven, ask your kids to do the following simple steps. Using a regular toothpick and chocolate paste, let them draw eyes and a nose for the bears. Then, ask the children to carefully attach the nuts to the bears as shown in the picture.
When the kids finish decorating the cookies, all that’s left is to bake them. Then, enjoy these original treats with the whole family over tea with the liveliest mood.
Enjoy your meal!
