Makes: 50 horn-shaped cookies
Ingredients
500 g lard
10 tbsp water
3 tbsp granulated sugar
5-6 tbsp vinegar
Approx. 1 kg flour
450 g strawberry jam
Vanilla essence
3-4 tbsp vanilla icing sugar
Preparation
Combine the lard with the water, granulated sugar, vinegar and vanilla essence.
Add the flour gradually and knead until you get a firm dough, similar to play-doh.
Cover the dough with clingfilm and place it in the freezer for around 2 hours. Don’t allow it to freeze!
Divide the dough in 4 and shape each of them round.
Roll the dough in a round shape and cut in triangles.
At the base, add approx. 1 tsp of jam and roll.
Add the resulting cookies on a baking tray, lined with baking paper.
Bake in the oven at 180℃ for 20 minutes, or until they become slightly golden.
Cool down the cookies, then roll them in vanilla icing sugar.
Tips
If you don’t have lard, you can use butter instead. The lard will ensure that the cookies are indeed melting in your mouth. You can also try with any other type of filling!
