1.
Sift the flour with salt and sugar onto a work surface. Press a depression in the middle. Add the egg and butter pieces. Roughly chop everything with a large kitchen knife into a crumbly dough, then quickly knead it into a smooth dough. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for about 1 hour.

Roll out the dough on a floured surface to about 3 mm thickness and cut out 50 stars. From half of the cookies, use the back of a piping tip to cut out a circle. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in a preheated oven at 200°C (gas: level 2-3, convection: 180°C) for about 12 minutes until light brown. Let the cookies cool on a cooling rack.
