Method

  • Sift the flour.

  • Place the flour and salt in a large bowl - Mix.
  • Rub the butter into the flour with your fingertips until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.

  • Next add approximately 1/2 of the egg yolk .
  • Mix well using your hands. Try to work quickly.

  • Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and chill for 10 -15 minutes.

  • Now take the chilled dough and roll out into a 12 inch square that is about 1/8 inch thick, using a rolling pin.

  • Use a cookie cutter and cut out cookies using your favorite cookie cutter shape (the recipe should make about 25, depending on how big your cutter is).

  • Make flower stem: Next cut the remaining dough into strips – 1/8 inch width and 6 inch long. Fold strip in half and twist strip together. I’ve done this in the photo above.

  • Lightly butter a baking tray and then line with oiled or baking sprayed parchment paper. Place the flower stems onto the baking tray.

  • Next brush the egg wash on top of the stem. Take a flower cookie and place on the top of the stem. Now make one hole on the top of flower using a toothpick.

  • Brush the egg on top of the flowers and stems.

  • Bake about 15 minutes at 200 c degrees or until the crust is golden brown.

  • Remove from oven and let cool.

  • Take a small strip of paper and write your fortune and connect it to the cookie with a piece of string threaded through the hole that you made in the flower. After that decorate.

  • Enjoy.
