How to make Shortbread cookies for Easter
Cookies covered with multicolored glaze will decorate your Easter table. And besides, children love him very much.
Step-by-step recipe
1. |
Mash soft butter in a bowl with a fork, add powdered sugar and mix. Take two chicken yolks, add to a bowl and mix until smooth. |
2. |
Add flour and mix. We take the resulting dough in our hands and form a ball. We wrap it in plastic wrap and in the refrigerator for 30-40 minutes. |
3. |
Then roll out the dough between two sheets of parchment 6- 7 mm thick. |
4. |
Preheat the oven to 180 gr. While the oven is heating, we make shapes for Easter-themed shapes. |
5. |
We shift the figures onto a baking sheet covered with parchment, and from the remains we form a ball again, roll out and make the figures again, and so on until the dough runs out. |
6. |
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. The finished cookies are slightly browned. Before you decorate it, you need to cool it completely. |
7. |
While the cookies are cooling, we will prepare the glaze. Pour the proteins into a small bowl and add the sifted powdered sugar one spoonful at a time. Mix well until smooth. |
8. |
Add powdered sugar until the glaze is thick. |
9. |
In a new plastic bag, put one tablespoon of glaze and tie the bag. |
10. |
Spread the remaining glaze into bowls and add a drop of dye to each bowl. Then put each color into bags. Cut off the corners of 1 mm and decorate the cookies by squeezing out the glaze at your discretion. |
