Chop everything together with a large knife and quickly knead with your hands to form a shortcrust pastry. Cover and chill for 2 hours. Preheat oven to 180°C (top/bottom heat). Roll out the dough thinly on a lightly floured surface and cut out shapes. Place on a baking sheet lined with baking paper.
