Add 8 tablespoons of cold Irish butter to the flour mixture and mix until crumbly.

Break 2 eggs into the flour mixture and mix well.

Combine 3 tablespoons of water and 3 tablespoons of heavy cream, then add to the flour mixture along with 3 tablespoons of vegetable oil. Mix until a dough forms.

Knead the dough for 7-10 minutes, then wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour.

Pulse the chicken mixture in a blender to achieve a paste-like consistency.

Roll out the dough thinly and cut into rectangular shapes.

Wrap the dough around a cone mold, starting from the pointy top and wrapping downwards.
