Homemade vanilla biscuits Lena

Preparation:

1. Mix butter or lard with a mixer, then add sugar and work again with a mixer.

2. When you have done that, add 3 egg yolks that you separated from the egg whites, (egg whites will be needed later), add walnuts, vanilla sugar, lemon peel and lemon juice, mix well and then gradually add flour to the mixture, now do it with a spatula and then go to work with your hands to knead the vanilla dough.

3. When you have worked out and got a nice smooth dough, transfer it to the work surface, flour the work table a little so that the dough does not stick to the dough, and roll out the dough to a thickness of 8 mm with a rolling pin, take the mold and take out the rolls.

4. When you are done, arrange them on the baking tray.

5. Now take the egg whites and beat until you get a thick mixture, then take out the egg whites with a spoon and apply only the upper part of the roll and sprinkle them with hazelnuts where you put the egg whites.

6. Apply egg whites and hazelnuts only on the upper part of the vanilla, although you can also use the lower ones if you want When you are done, bake them at 160 degrees for 10-15 minutes. Must not be darkening, the dough must be white and beige!

7. After baking, roll them in powdered sugar mixed with 2 sachet vanilla sugar.

8. Arrange them on a tray, after 2 days they are best because they soften.

9. I believe you like the recipe and that you will make vanilla in the future.

Notes: Instead of hazelnuts, you can also put half a walnut from the shell as a decoration. It's better for me like this. Grind the hazelnuts, that goes without saying;)

Buon appetito!
