Quickly knead the flour, butter, powdered sugar, egg yolk, and orange zest into a smooth dough. Chill for about half an hour. Then roll out the dough, cut out stars, cover with icing, and place on a baking sheet lined with baking paper. Bake in the oven at 180°C for about 15 minutes. While still warm, assemble two stars with a little orange jelly. For the icing, beat the egg whites with the powdered sugar until thick and foamy. Squeeze the orange and stir in the juice well. Makes about 60 stars.
