Roll biscuits, easy to prepare

The day before, chop the cranberries on a board. Place the cranberries in a bowl with the remaining ingredients and knead into a smooth dough. Shape the dough into a thick, 20 cm long log and then roll it in sugar. Wrap the dough in foil and refrigerate overnight. Tip: I chilled my log for almost 24 hours. It was then easy to cut with a large chef’s knife. The next day, preheat the oven to 175°C (top/bottom heat) or 150°C (convection oven). Line 3 baking sheets with baking paper. Use a sharp knife to cut the log into 5 mm thin slices and arrange them on the baking sheets. Place the sheets individually or together in a convection oven for about 10-12 minutes in the hot oven. Let the cookies cool on a wire rack and, once completely cooled, store them in a tin in layers, separated by wax paper.
