Then roll the dough into balls (20 pieces), put them on a baking sheet covered with parchment. Make depressions in each ball with a special device (or a handle from an old bottle opener, or just a finger), put the sheet in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
Preheat the oven to 190°C. Remove the cookie sheet from the refrigerator, put it in the oven on the upper level and bake the cookies for 6-8 minutes. Then take out the cookies, make the indentations again, return the baking sheet to the oven and bake for another 6-8 minutes.
