Margaret Baby Cookies

Overview

Margaret has a rather long scientific name: Miss Margaret who lived in Stresa, Italy. It is said that a pastry chef fell in love with this lady, so he made this dessert and used the lady's name as the name of this French dessert. Margaret is an absolute novice-level biscuit. It does not use many tools and does not require special materials. It has a simple and unpretentious appearance, but the taste is crispy and delicious, somewhat similar to the texture of Wangzi steamed buns. This recipe is for 60 biscuits, each biscuit is 5 grams. The appearance is also great👍

Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 First, let’s boil the eggs. How can we cook the egg yolks that are easy to sift? When boiling eggs, put cold water in the pot, soak for 3 minutes, turn on medium heat and bring to a boil. After boiling, cook for another 8 minutes, turn off the heat, remove and cool in cold water. Peel off the shell and take out the egg yolk. The egg yolk will be dry, which will make it easier to sift. Two eggs only require 2 yolks. Spare.

   

2. 2 Then soften the butter. Be careful not to soften the butter into a watery state. It must be in a paste state that can be broken by poking it with a whisk.

   

3. 3 Add powdered sugar and salt to softened butter and beat with an electric mixer until the volume expands slightly and the color becomes slightly lighter

   

4. 4 Crush the egg yolk with a small spoon, put it into the flour sieve, and start to sift the egg yolk. The sifted egg yolk will be more delicious and soft.

   

5. 5 Press the egg yolk firmly with a small spoon and sift all the egg yolk in a few times, as shown in the picture.

   

6. 6 Use an electric whisk to mix evenly. Don't over-whip. As shown in the figure

   

7. 7 Sift in the low-gluten flour and cornstarch, and mix evenly with a spatula

   

8. 8 Use your hands to knead the dough into a ball. The dough should be slightly dry but not spread out. Place the prepared dough in the refrigerator for one hour

   

9. 9 After an hour, take out the refrigerated dough, roll all the dough into small balls of 5 grams, and place them on a non-stick baking sheet. If you don't have a non-stick baking pan, you have to put parchment paper underneath. The 5-gram ball is also more likely to produce beautiful cracks when pressed. Of course, you can also make it into 7 grams each or 10 grams each.

   

10. 10 After kneading all the Daliwan 😄, start to flatten it with your index finger 👆 or thumb, and beautiful crackling biscuits will appear

    

11. 11 You can also brush the surface with egg yolk liquid and sprinkle with black sesame seeds for decoration. Here I made half with egg yolk liquid and half without brushing. Note⚠️Be sure to brush with egg yolk liquid instead of whole egg liquid. Preheat the oven to 170 degrees, middle rack, for 15 minutes. Every oven has a different temperament, so pay attention to the edges of the biscuits to be slightly brown after 10 minutes and they are ready to be baked

    

12. 12 Ding🔔Open the oven and your cute margarita cookies will be out of the oven, crispy and sweet. This recipe contains 5 grams of margarita cookies, a total of 60 pieces. Small, cute and delicious😋
