Butter with 65% fat content
100 g
Small chicken eggs
2 – 3
Salt
1 pinch
Chocolate
to your taste
Method of preparation
1
The tenderness of this dessert comes from the shortcrust pastry base. If desired, you can decorate the pastries with chocolate glaze. To do this, melt one chocolate bar and add 3 tablespoons of sour cream to the cooled mass, mix well, and pour it over the ready cookies. If you want to emphasize the crumbly texture of the cookies, sprinkle powdered sugar on top – it will make the dessert sugary
2
The butter should be softened in advance. Take it out of the refrigerator an hour before preparation. If guests arrive unexpectedly, you can melt the butter in a double boiler
3
Mix salt, sugar, and eggs. Use a mixer on low speed to beat until a fluffy foam forms. Add the butter and continue beating until it reaches a creamy consistency
4
Sift the flour. This will make the pastries airy and crumbly after baking and ensure there is no unwanted debris in the mixture. Combine the flour with the base to create an elastic dough
5
Transfer the mixture to a pastry bag. If you don’t have one, use a plastic bag. Using a star-shaped nozzle or by cutting a corner of the bag, “pipe” the cookies onto parchment paper, making them about 5-7 cm long. They should be small rectangular shapes with ridges on top. It’s better to place them on parchment paper to prevent sticking
6
Preheat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius and bake for 10-15 minutes. The “Takeoff” cookies are ready to be served to your guests!
Brew some tea and invite everyone to the table! Enjoy your meal! With care for you, UE “Borisovskiy kombinat hleboproduktov”
