Ingredients for 1 servings:

  • 300 g margarine, vegan, room temperature
  • 200 g powdered sugar, sifted
  • 2 tbsp cornstarch
  • 500 g wheat flour type 405
  • ½ tsp baking powder
  • 2 packs of lemon zest
  • 1 pinch of cinnamon powder
  • 1 pinch of cardamom powder
  • 1 tsp. clove powder
  • 1 pinch of mace powder

Instructions

Working time approx. 20 minutes; Rest time approx. 1 hour; Cooking/baking time approx. 8 minutes; Total time approx. 1 hour 28 minutes

Also tasty for non-vegans

Mix the cornstarch with a little water until smooth. Beat the margarine, powdered sugar, spices, and cornstarch in a bowl on high speed until creamy. The amount of spices varies according to taste; I always use a little more cinnamon and less cloves. Mix the flour with the baking powder and sift it in. Add the grated lemon zest and knead everything into a smooth dough. Wrap in aluminum foil and chill for at least 20 minutes. After the resting time, knead the dough again, roll out thinly, and cut out cookies. Place the baking sheets one after the other in the preheated oven at 160°C (fan oven) and bake the cookies for about 8-10 minutes, until lightly browned. Let cool and decorate as desired.
