very tasty cookies – not too sweet, can be served with coffee all year round

Knead all ingredients into a shortcrust pastry and let it rest for a few hours. Then roll out the dough (not too thick) and cut out shapes (e.g., Christmas motifs). Place on a baking sheet, brush with egg yolk, and bake at approximately 160°C for approximately 15-20 minutes.
