Directions

1. Step

We start by putting the butter in a bowl, to which we add the sugar. In my experience, it is important that the butter is at room temperature so that the mixture is more homogeneous.

2. Step

Beat the butter and sugar until smooth and creamy.

3. Step

Then add the egg yolks and the vanilla extract. Here's a tip: Use a good vanilla extract, it will make a difference in the flavor.

4. Step

Gradually add the flour and knead until a smooth and consistent dough is obtained.

5. Step

Let the dough rest in the refrigerator for 2 hours. This is an essential step for the dough to take the right consistency and for the cookies to keep their shape during baking.

6. Step

Preheat the oven to 180°C.

7. Step

Roll out the dough with a rolling pin until it is approximately 5 mm thick. Use a star-shaped cookie cutter to shape our cookies.

8. Step

Place our vanilla stars on a greased baking sheet and bake for 10-15 minutes until lightly browned.

9. Step

Finally, let them cool and sprinkle with powdered sugar to give them a Christmas touch.

10. Step

Enjoy these delicious vanilla stars with your family and friends!
