Chef's tip : To transform shortbread cookies into Christmas tree decorations, use a piping bag nozzle to make small holes in the top of each cookie as you cut them out with the cookie cutter. Once the cookies are baked, assembled, and decorated, thread a ribbon through the holes, tie a knot, and hang them on the Christmas tree.

Preparations

​

1. Prepare the dough

  1. Mix the flour, sugar, salt and spices in a bowl.
  2. Add the softened butter and knead for 1–2 minutes until a smooth dough is obtained.
  3. Spread the dough between two sheets of parchment paper to a thickness of approximately 4 mm.
  4. Cut out the shortbread cookies with your cookie cutter. If you want filled cookies, use two cookies per cookie. Place the cut-out cookies in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.

2. Cooking​

  1. Preheat your oven to 160°C.
  2. Place the biscuits on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 10 to 11 minutes.
  3. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet.

3. Assembly and Decoration​

  1. Put the Nutella® in a piping bag fitted with a small nozzle (approximately 2 mm), pipe about 5 g of Nutella® onto half of the biscuits, then sandwich them together with the remaining biscuits to form the filled shortbread cookies. The piping bag can also be used to decorate the house-shaped shortbread cookies with windows, a roof, and a door.
  2. To transform shortbread cookies into Christmas tree decorations, use a piping bag nozzle to make small holes in the top of each cookie as you cut them out with the cookie cutter. Once the cookies are baked, assembled, and decorated, thread a ribbon through the holes, tie a bow, and hang them on the Christmas tree so everyone can admire this delicious creation!
