  • 100 g (3.5 oz) powdered sugar

Preparation

Method

FOR THE SWEET SHORTCRUST PASTRY

Work the sugar with the butter until creamy. Make a well in the flour, sprinkle with ground coffee and place the butter with the previously mixed sugar into the centre. Then, add the eggs and the yolk in the well. Start mixing the ingredients, combining them slowly. Knead until you obtain a smooth pastry, and let it rest in the fridge for about an hour.

 

BAKING THE COOKIES

Roll the pastry with a rolling pin on a chopping board, until it’s as thick as you want the cookies to be. Cut out the cookies using kitchen cutters. Have fun picking the shapes! Next, put them on baking paper and bake at 180°C (356°F) for about 10-12 minutes.
