Shortbread Cookies with Boiled Egg Yolks
Baking and Desserts • European
Description
These cookies are the very first thing I ever learned to make, and so far, I have never had a case where they didn't turn out or were not tasty.))
Ingredients
- Wheat Flour 1 cup
- Margarine 10 oz
- Sugar 1 cup
- Chocolate eggs 4 pieces
- Powdered Sugar 0 oz
- Cocoa Powder 0 oz
Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1
Boil the eggs hard, cool them down, and remove the cooked yolks.
Step 2
Mash the yolks with sugar until smooth. It's best to do this while the yolks are still warm.
Step 3
Grate the margarine on a coarse grater, or chop it finely with a knife. Mix with the flour to create a crumbly mixture.
Step 4
Combine the sugar yolks with the margarine mixture and knead the dough. The dough should be uniform, soft, but not sticky.
Step 5
You can bake in two ways: 1 — roll out the dough to a thickness of 0.5 cm, cut out cookies, and bake for about 15 minutes. Optionally, you can cover the cookies with chocolate glaze and crushed nuts; 2 — shape balls with a radius of 2 cm (one bite) and throw them against the table, not just drop them, but throw with some force, but don’t overdo it. Upon impact, the ball turns into a neat cone, which should be baked for about 15–20 minutes. Once baked, roll the cone-shaped cookies in a mixture of powdered sugar and cocoa; optionally, you can add cinnamon or vanilla, depending on your preference. Be sure to roll them while the cookies are still hot, otherwise nothing will stick to them.
Step 6
The finished cookies should be cooled and served cold. While they are okay hot, they are definitely not as tasty.
