So sometimes we really want crunchy, sweet shortbread cookies, the recipe for which I share in this article. There is one nuance in this recipe: it is better for children to prepare shortbread cookies with butter rather than margarine.

7. After 20 minutes, you need to remove the dough from the refrigerator and carefully roll it into a layer on a floured table. I roll out the dough to a thickness of 0.5-0.7 cm.

Form the remaining dough into a ball again, roll it out and cut out the cookies.

8. Cover a baking sheet with baking paper (parchment) and arrange the cookies. Place in a preheated oven (180 degrees).
