2.
Divide the dough into four portions and roll each to about 4 mm thickness on a lightly floured surface. Cut out six animal head shapes from each portion or use a dough grid to stamp them. Place the cutouts on a baking tray. Knead the remaining scraps together, roll again, and bake in a preheated oven at 200°C (middle rack) for about 10 minutes. Open the oven door and let the cookies cool in the turned-off oven.

Warm the apricot jam, strain it through a fine sieve, and spread thinly over the cookies. Whisk powdered sugar with 1 tbsp water until smooth. Transfer to a small piping bag and pipe eyes, nose, and mouth onto the animal heads.
