Ingredients
- For the cookies
- 300 grams Pastry flour
- 100 grams sugar
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 organic lemon (zested and juiced)
- 1 egg
- 200 grams butter
- To serve
- Pastry flour (for dusting)

Preparation steps
For the cookies: Combine the flour, sugar, salt and lemon zest, make a well in the center, add the beaten egg to the well and distribute the chopped butter around the edges. With a knife, chop the ingredients until crumbly and then quickly knead until smooth. Shape into a ball, wrap in plastic wrap and chill for 30 minutes in the refrigerator. Preheat the oven to 180°C (approximately 350°F).
Roll out the dough on a lightly floured work surface until 0.5 cm (approximately 1/4 inch) thick. Cut into 2.5 cm circles and then cut a small circle from the center of 1/2 of the cookies. Arrange on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 8-10 minutes, until light golden brown. Let cool slightly then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Warm the jam and spread over the cookies with no holes. Top with the remaining cookies, pressing in lightly. Mix the powdered sugar with the lemon juice and spread over the cookies. Let dry completely before serving in a gift box.
