Instructions

Step 1

Prepare the Dough

In a bowl, mix softened butter and powdered sugar using a wooden spoon until creamy.
Add the egg white and whisk vigorously until smooth.
Gradually add the all-purpose flour, mixing until you get a creamy dough. You can see the desired consistency in the video.

Step 2

Shaping and Baking

You can color the dough with any food coloring if desired.
Use a piping bag to create patterns on baking paper. Be careful not to make the lines too thin as they will be fragile.
Remember that the pattern will spread slightly in the oven. You can chill the dough in the freezer for a bit before baking.
Bake at 175°C (350°F) for 5-7 minutes. If overbaked, the cookies will darken.
Right out of the oven, the cookies will be flexible. They will harden as they cool down.

Servings

The possibilities for serving these delightful cookies are endless! 🎉 Serve them with a refreshing glass of milk 🥛 to bring back childhood memories. For a more sophisticated touch, present them alongside a pot of freshly brewed tea 🍵 or coffee ☕.

Hosting a party? These cookies make the perfect addition to any dessert table. Arrange them on a pretty platter and watch them disappear in no time! 🍽️ For an extra special touch, drizzle a bit of melted chocolate on top or sandwich two cookies together with some fruit jam. 🍓

Variations

Gluten-Free Variation:

To make these cookies gluten-free 🌾, simply substitute the all-purpose flour with a gluten-free flour blend. Make sure to check if your flour blend already contains xanthan gum; if not, adding a teaspoon can improve the texture. 🍪

Vegan Variation:

For a vegan-friendly version 🌱, replace the butter with a plant-based margarine and use a flax egg (1 tablespoon flaxseed meal + 3 tablespoons water) instead of the egg white. 👌 Your vegan friends will love you for it!

Faq

  • Q: Why are my cookies too flat?

    A: Make sure your butter is softened but not too warm. Chilling the dough before baking can also help maintain the cookie's shape.

  • Q: Can I use regular sugar instead of powdered sugar?

    A: It’s best to stick with powdered sugar for this recipe as it integrates more smoothly and ensures a delicate texture.

  • Q: How can I add extra flavor to these cookies?

    A: You can add a teaspoon of vanilla extract or a dash of almond extract to the dough. Finely grated lemon or orange zest can also add a refreshing citrus note.

  • Q: How do I prevent my cookies from spreading too much?

    A: Chilling the dough before baking and avoiding overmixing can help control spreading. Also, ensure your oven is preheated to the correct temperature.

  • Q: Can I freeze the dough for later use?

    A: Yes, you can freeze the dough! Just make sure to wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and place it in an airtight container. Thaw it in the fridge before using.

  • Q: How do I achieve an even color on my baked cookies?

    A: Make sure to spread the dough evenly and avoid overcrowding the baking sheet. If needed, rotate the tray halfway through baking for uniformity.
