  5. Place the dough on a paper lined sheet pan and press the dough out as flat as possible so it can cool quickly.

  7. Roll out the dough into a rectange and 3 mm thick.
  8. Use a fluted cutter to cut out the shapes.

  12. Fill the base of the cookies with your favorite jam and cover with the top.
