This recipe makes about 40 to 60 biscuits, depending on the size! Knead all ingredients, except the jam, vanilla sugar, and powdered sugar, into a smooth dough and let it rest in a cool place for about 1 hour. Roll out the dough (about 3 to 4 mm thick). Cut out biscuits, making half of them with a hole (or several), and place them on a baking sheet. Line the baking sheet with baking paper (no need to grease it, as the dough contains a lot of butter) and place the biscuits in an oven preheated to 170°C (350°F) and bake until golden brown. Once cooled, spread the biscuits without holes with apricot jam and stick the biscuits with holes on top. Sprinkle with a mixture of vanilla sugar and powdered sugar.
