Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 150 grams unsalted butter
- 75 grams powdered sugar
- 1 large egg yolk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 200 grams all-purpose flour
- 50 grams cornstarch
- 0.5 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 tablespoon milk
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream the unsalted butter and powdered sugar together until light and fluffy.
Add the egg yolk and vanilla extract to the butter mixture, and beat until well combined.
In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, and baking powder.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing well after each addition.
If the dough is too stiff, stir in 1 tablespoon of milk to reach the desired consistency.
Transfer the dough to a piping bag fitted with a star nozzle. Pipe small rosettes or spirals onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
Remove the kurabye biscuits from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store the biscuits in an airtight container to maintain their freshness.
