Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 175 degrees Celsius (350 degrees Fahrenheit).
- In a large bowl, mix the oil and powdered sugar well until you achieve a smooth mixture.
- Gradually add the flour and knead the dough thoroughly.
- Check the consistency of the dough and add more flour if necessary until smooth.
- Pinch off pieces of dough and shape them into cylinders.
- Cut the cylindrical dough pieces at an angle to create your desired cookie shape.
- Place the cookies on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and score them with a fork.
- Bake the cookies for about 15 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and dust with powdered sugar as desired.
Notes
These cookies are fantastic on their own but pair beautifully with tea or coffee. For an extra touch, add chocolate chips or chopped nuts to the dough before baking. They make great gifts when wrapped in clear cellophane or placed in a decorative tin.
