How to cook deliciously - Irish Christmas cookies
1. Stage
I multiplied the specified amount of products twice - otherwise there would not be enough for our family :-) Turn on the oven. The butter (a little thawed after the fridge) and sifted flour is grated into a fine-fine crumb. You can use margarine instead of butter, but only good quality!
2. Stage
Mix the buttercrumb with the sugar.
3. Stage
Grease the mold with butter. Pour into it all our butter and sugar and flour crumbs. And press it well with your hand, so to say, tamp it down. Bake it in the oven at 180 degrees Celsius. In my oven it baked for 50 minutes. But you may need less time. You have to make sure that the mass is not overcooked, otherwise you won't be able to cut it later.
4. Stage
Then take the mold out of the oven and cut the hot layer into biscuits. You can cut them into squares-rhombic-priangles-parallelograms. But you can also cut them out with a shot glass. I also found a little piece of chocolate that everyone forgot about. I grated it into shavings and sprinkled a little on the still warm cookies. The chips stuck to the cookies beautifully:-)
5. Stage
The cookies come out crispy and greasy. But they're budget-friendly:-)
6. Stage
Yes. Now the practical side of the question (this is if you stamped the cookies with a shotgun). You should have some "scraps" left over. I suggest this solution. We turn the scraps into crumbs. Add grated chocolate. Stir. Next, we need a shot glass that looks like a bell. We line it with clingfilm. And we start a little by little pouring crumbs, tamping them well with a finger. Fill a glass up to the top. We put it in a cooling oven. It was about 50 degrees Celsius. We just need the chocolate to melt. And then straight into the fridge. In fact, to let the chocolate "set."
7. Stage
Carefully take out our "bell". Sprinkle with powdered sugar.
8. Stage
Decorate as desired;-)
