Ingredients
The following ingredients have 4 Servings
- 3 large egg yolks (room temperature)
- 1 large whole egg (room temperature)
- 1/2 teaspoon lemon zest
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour (at least 11% protein)
- 1 pinch salt*
- 3/4 cup + 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup + 2 1/2 tablespoons butter (softened) ((softened))
Instruction
- In a small bowl lightly beat the egg yolks, whole egg, zest and vanilla.
- In a large bowl add the flour, make a well in the middle and add the butter, sugar, salt and egg mixture. With a fork mix until almost combined, then move to a lightly floured flat surface. Knead gently to combine (don't over knead). Dough will be soft. Wrap in plastic and refrigerate one hour.
- Pre-heat oven to 400 F (200 C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Remove dough from the fridge and break off small pieces of dough, soften the dough slightly between your finger and roll into approximately 4-6 inches, to form into an S shape. Place on prepared cookie sheets and bake for 10 minutes, reduce heat to 320F (150C) and bake for another 10-15 minutes or until lightly golden. Let cool 5-10 minutes on the baking sheet then move to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy.
