Kokos Marmeladen Sterne Backen (Rezept) | Baking Jam Filled Coconut Star Cookies | [ENG SUBS]

butter

🥗Healthier: coconut oil

💰Cheaper: margarine

Coconut oil adds a subtle flavor while margarine is often less expensive.

jam

🥗Healthier: fruit preserves

💰Cheaper: store-brand jam

Fruit preserves are often made with less sugar, while store-brand options can save money.

Combine 300 grams of flour, 200 grams of cold butter (cut into pieces), 100 grams of powdered sugar, 1 egg yolk, 1 sachet of vanilla sugar, and a pinch of salt in a mixing bowl.

Knead together with your hands for 2 - 3 minutes to form a smooth dough.

Lightly dust the worktop with flour.

Flour the dough a little from above and press slightly until flat.

Roll out the dough about half a centimeter thick with a rolling pin.

Use a star-shaped cutter to cut out the dough.

Place the cookies on a baking sheet lined with baking paper.

Bake in the preheated oven at 180°C (about 350°F) for about 8 - 10 minutes until golden brown.

Take the cookies out of the oven and allow them to cool down well.

Spread some red jam (cherry jam) on one cookie and glue together with a second one.

Spread the top with some more jam and roll the jam side in coconut flakes.

Repeat the process for the remaining star cookies.
