HOW TO MAKE COOKIES WITH YOUR ROLLING PIN?

• 1 cup (220g) unsalted butter.
• 1 1/3 cups (175g) confectioner’s (icing) sugar.
• 1 Egg (room temperature).
• 1.5-3 Teaspoons extract or emulsion (any flavor).
• 3 1/3 cups (400-425g) all-purpose flour.

1. Cream together butter and sugar.
2. Add egg and extract and mix well.
3. Sift together flour and a pinch of salt, add to the wet mixture little by little until well incorporated.
4. Roll, emboss and cut cookies into desired shapes, dusting with flour as necessary.
5. Bake cookies at 200 Celsius for 7-8 minutes until tops appear dry rather than shiny.
6. The secret is to pre-heat the oven and apply the right amount of pressure on the dough.
