What you need
For the cookies (makes about 60):
- 500g flour
- 250g butter
- 150g icing sugar
- 2 eggs
- 2 small packs of vanilla sugar
- a pinch of salt
- rolling pin
- cookie cutters
- 350g icing sugar
- 4-5 tbsp of lemon juice
- tons of sprinkles
- food colouring
First you need to combine all the dry ingredients for the cookies and mix them really well. Then mix the (softened) butter together with the eggs and slowly add this to the dry ingredients. Its best to use a spatula to combine everything to begin with and then make it into a dough ball using your hands. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and place it into the fridge for 2 hours.
After the 2 hours take the dough out of the fridge and roll it out to a thickness of about 0.5cm. At this point you should preheat your oven to 175°. Use your cookie cutters (if possible christmasy ones) to form your cookies and place them on a baking tray lined with non stick baking paper. Place in the oven for about 12 minutes or until golden brown.
