Ingredients for 1 servings:

  • 500 g spelt flour type 630
  • 250 g sweet cream butter
  • 250 g raw cane sugar
  • 1 pack of cream of tartar baking powder
  • 6 egg yolks
  • 3 tbsp crème fraîche
  • 1 packet of vanilla sugar
  • n. B. spelt flakes
  • n. B. Cocoa
  • n. B. Rum

Instructions

Working time approx. 20 minutes; Rest period approx. 1 day; Cooking/baking time approx. 10 minutes; Total time approx. 1 day 30 minutes

Put the spelt flour, cream of tartar, cold butter, egg yolk, raw cane sugar, vanilla sugar, and 3 tablespoons of crème fraîche into a bowl and knead until you get a smooth dough. The dough should ideally be refrigerated overnight before baking, but it’s even better if it’s rested in the freezer for a few days. I also like to mix the dough with spelt flakes or use a little rum when baking chocolate cookies. It’s important that the cookies aren’t too close together on the baking sheet, as they’ll expand during baking. Bake the cookies at 200°C (top/bottom heat) for about 10 minutes.
