Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to make Crispy cookies? Prepare all baking ingredients. Beat a chicken egg into a deep bowl to make the cookies crispy, you need to use a minimum of chicken eggs, on the one hand, they are needed to obtain an elastic and rich dough, but at the same time they contain a lot of moisture, which can deprive the cookies of their crunch and make them soft. Add sugar and whisk the ingredients until the sugar dissolves.

Step 2

Step 2
Melt the butter in a water bath or in the microwave, let it cool to room temperature. Pour the melted butter into the bowl with the egg mixture. Stir the mass.

Step 3

Step 3
Sift the wheat flour, this will saturate it with oxygen. Add baking powder and mix dry ingredients well. Pour the flour mixture into the bowl with the liquid and knead the dough until it comes together. You may need a little less or more flour. Read more about flour in the article at the end of the recipe.

Step 4

Step 4
Mix the dough a little with your hands to form a ball of elastic and smooth dough. Place it in a bowl. Cover the bowl with cling film to prevent the dough from drying out. And put it in the refrigerator for half an hour. Remove the rested dough from the refrigerator. It will become even more obedient and elastic.

Step 5

Step 5
Using your hands, roll out the dough into a long, thin sausage. Divide it into small pieces and roll them into balls. The dough is so manageable and does not stick to your hands at all that you can do this without additional flour. Cover the baking sheet with parchment, grease it with butter (although this is not necessary), since the dough already contains it and should not stick to the parchment. Preheat the oven to 220 degrees.

Step 6

Step 6
Bake the cookies for about 10-12 minutes, until lightly browned. If the cookies are baked at a lower temperature, they will be soft and will not be crunchy. Time and temperature are approximate, use your equipment as a guide. Read more about ovens in a separate article at the end of the recipe. Serve crispy homemade cookies with tea, coffee or cocoa. Enjoy your tea!
