Instructions

Put flour and cornstarch in a bowl. Add the egg, the sugar, vanilla sugar, and soft margarine and knead to a smooth dough. Wrap the dough into foil and place it in the fridge for at least 1 hour.

On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to 3mm thickness. Cut out biscuits with e. g. star-shaped or moon-shaped cookie cutters. Place the biscuits on 2 baking trays, lined with baking paper.

Preheat the oven to 175°C.
