Christmas cookies

Knead a shortcrust pastry dough. If it’s sticky, chill it for half an hour. Roll out the dough to about 1/2 cm thick, cut out discs using a round cutter (about 4-5 cm in diameter), and bake them on a greased baking sheet (or lined with baking paper) at 140°C on the second rack for 15-20 minutes. Once cooled, stick two discs together with chocolate glaze. Glaze the tops of the sandwich cookies and sprinkle with desiccated coconut.
