Description
Easy to prepare and really cute looking Easter cookies! Forget lame old Easter eggs – this is what you have to look for on an Easter brunch! ;)
Ingredients
For the dough:
1/2 cup (120g) butter, at room temperature
4.2 oz. (120g) sugar
1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
1 medium egg
2 cups (250g) all-purpose flour
1 pinch of baking powder
For the chocolate decoration:
10–14 oz. (300-400g) chocolate glaze (depending on the form you use)
Instructions
1. Add the butter and sugar to a large bowl and beat on high speed until light and fluffy. Add the vanilla extract and egg and mix until well combined. Mix the flour with baking powder and add to the bowl. Knead until you get a nice smooth dough. Form a ball, flatten and wrap in plastic wrap. Place in the fridge for at least 1 hour.
2. Preheat the oven to 190°C (375°F). Line a baking sheet with baking parchment and set aside. Roll out the dough on a floured surface to a thickness of about 5mm. Cut out the cookies and place on the baking sheet. Bake the cookies for about 7-9 minutes until the edges start to get golden brown. Take out of the oven, let cool down on the baking sheet for some time, then transfer to a wire rack and let cool down completely.
3. Warm up the chocolate glaze until liquid and fill into the silicone molds*. Let harden completely, then remove carefully. Add some drops of melted chocolate on the cookies and press the chocolate decoration on top. Let harden and dry.
