Ingredients

  • 200 g Butter, unsalted

  • 100 g Sugar, white

  • 1 bag Sugar, white

  • 1 pinch Salt, table

  • 2 piece Egg, egg yolk, fresh

  • 2 spoons Sour cream

  • 300 g Wheat flour, white, multi-purpose

  • 0.5 teaspoons Baking powder

  • 60 g chocolate, dark

Steps

  1. In a bowl with an electric mixer, cream together the diced butter, granulated sugar, vanilla sugar, and salt. Add the egg yolk and sour cream and mix everything well.

  2. In another bowl, sift the flour and mix it with the baking powder. Gradually add the flour to the butter mixture while mixing. Mix until you get a uniform dough without lumps. Shape the dough into a ball, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 30 minutes.

  3. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius. Line a low baking sheet with parchment paper. Roll out the dough on a floured surface to about 0.5 cm thick. Use a cookie cutter to cut out stars from the rolled dough. Carefully transfer the stars to the baking sheet and press a candy into the center of each cookie. Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes (until they turn golden brown).

  4. Transfer the baked cookies from the baking sheet to a wire rack and let them cool completely. Serve the cooled cookies on a large plate or platter.
