Grace的進修雜記:)

Recipe, 1 cup butter, 1/2 cup sugar, 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1 egg, and 1 teaspoon almond extract or vanilla.
Heat oven to 400 Fahrenheit.
If the butter is not soft in the room temperature, you can use microwave to make it soft in ten seconds.
Mix butter and sugar well before pour the flour into the mixing bowl.

After the flour is poured into the bowl , mix the powder well, and then the egg can also be added into the bowl.

The final step is to add 1/2 tsp salt and 1 tsp almond extra into the mixing bowl.
Put the dough into the container and push the air out.
Greased the cooking sheet before set the dough on it.

Remember to leave some space in between.

It is time to decorate the cookies.

When the temperature reaches 400 Fahrenheit, the cooking sheet is put into the oven for 8 to 12 minutes.
Make yourself a hot tea when waiting for the cookies.

剛剛結束的耶誕假期，我們做了兩批手工餅乾，這個成形時需要用到的模具讓我覺得頗具挑戰，畢竟我的手腕受過傷，要控制力量剛好可以把漂亮的立體形狀放到烤盤上就讓我花了很長的時間，還好最後的成果能端的上台面。

多餘的麵團也被我們直接弄成拐杖糖的樣子擺到烤盤上了，雖然我還無法獨立作業完成這些手工餅乾，但這是能讓我暫時忘掉課業的紓壓方式，所以有空應該我還會在廚房內當二廚繼續玩麵團吧！
