Instructions

  • Steam the salted egg yolks for 10 minutes. Mash them into fine crumbs while still warm. Set aside.
  • Using a hand mixer, beat LURPAK UNSALTED BUTTER and sugar together until creamy and a little bit light and fluffy.
  • Sieve in flour, corn starch, and salt. Add the salted egg. Switch to a silicone spatula and mix it until it becomes a homogeneous dough. If the dough feels sticky on your finger, wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes until it is easier to handle. If not, continue to shaping.
  • Place the dough in between 2 sheets of parchment paper. Roll into a thickness of 1/4-inch(0.5cm).
  • Remove the upper sheet of paper. Cut-out as many pieces with a cookie-cutter. Transfer them onto a tray lined with parchment paper. Gather the leftover dough and repeat the rolling process. If using a 1�'(3cm) flower cookie cutter, you shouldbe able to get at least 45 pieces.
  • To make the egg wash, whisk the egg yolk and water together. brush it over the top of each cookie dough. Finally, top each with sesame seeds.
  • Bake in a preheated oven at 170�C for 18-20 minutes or until golden brown. Let cool on a wire rack.
