Knead everything vigorously with your hands until a smooth dough forms. Cover and refrigerate for about 30 minutes. The dough can then be used as a cake base or as cookie dough. (Simply roll out, cut out cookies, bake, and cover with chocolate after it has cooled.) Baking time and temperature depend on what you’re using the dough for.
