Description

These shortcrust pastry cookies with jam are a classic during the Christmas season and simply taste delicious! I make them every year and they are always a hit. The dough is quick to prepare and rolls out well. The filling with fruity jam makes them particularly juicy. Perfect for Advent coffee or as a small gift from the kitchen. If you like, you can also refine the dough with a little lemon or orange zest. Preparation in the Thermomix® is child's play and saves time. An absolute must for everyone who likes to bake!
