Roll out the dough on a floured surface to about 3–4 mm thickness. Cut diamond‑shaped cookies with a serrated edge. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake in a preheated oven at 180 °C (middle rack) for about 12 minutes until golden brown. Remove, lift off the sheet and set on a cooling rack.
