Cost Breakdown
Critical Success Points
- • Whisk the butter and powdered sugar until a pale, creamy consistency is achieved
- • Sift all dry ingredients before incorporating them
- • Roll the dough very thin (≈3 mm) so the cookies double in size without becoming too thick
- • Watch the baking: the cookies should remain pale in the centre
- • Whisk the buttercream long enough for it to become airy
Safety Warnings
- • Handle the hot oven; wear kitchen gloves when removing the sheets
- • Be careful with sharp knives and cookie cutters
