Shortbread Cookies “Assorted” Recipe

This is a very tender, crumbly cookie with various fillings and I will say right away that the most popular is with Nutella, although, to my taste, jam is tastier, and lemon curd is generally fantastic!

Ingredients

Dough:

3pieces Egg yolk
90gram Sugar
200gram Butter
2glasses Flour wheat / Flour
1pack Vanilla sugar
1teaspoon Baking powder

Filling:

Nutellato taste
Jamraspberry, cherry, lemon, strawberry, to taste
Sugar powderfor sprinkling

Instructions

In a bowl, mix 3 yolks and 0.5 cups of sugar with a spoon, add the softened butter, cut into pieces, and beat well with a mixer so that the sugar almost dissolves.
For 2-3 doses, pour the flour mixed with baking powder and vanilla, stirring with a spoon. We will prepare this soft dough. We wrap the dough in plastic wrap and send it to the refrigerator for a couple of hours, I personally – for the night. After the refrigerator, the dough changes its structure – it becomes brittle, tender, sand it, work with it carefully, especially when laying out on a baking sheet.
In the morning I take out the dough, give it a little rest to make it a little softer, roll it out on a floured board into a layer 3 mm thick. and I cut out a round cookie. In half of them, I cut out stars in the center. Scraps are collected into a ball, rolled out again, etc. – waste-free production! We spread the cookies on a greased baking sheet and send them to the freezer for 10-15 minutes. During this time, preheat the oven to 190-200 degrees. and right out of the freezer, my cookies go into the oven. While they are baking, the second portion freezes in the freezer.
I bake on the second from the lower level for 9 minutes (watch your oven!) to a light golden color. On some cookies, strips are visible – this is when they were transferred to a baking sheet, they broke: (but if this happens, don’t worry – when baking, they will stick together and remain strips!
Lubricate the cooled cookies with jam or nutella and cover with half an asterisk, lightly, very (!) gently press down. Our cookies are ready!
Rub with powdered sugar through a double gauze. Ideally, it’s better to bake in the evening and “publish” in the morning, but we can’t – they disappear on the first day, because I bake them, as a rule, in the morning, and the kitchen is the most visited place in the house, so I don’t hide! The cookies turn out to be very tender, there is even carefully, carefully sprinkled sand in it. Honey, I’ll be glad if you like it!!
