Christmas Icing Cookies
1.
First make a flat and smooth biscuit bottom. The first step: the butter is softened at room temperature, or microwaved for 10 seconds, 20 seconds, softened until it is soft with a hand poke, but do not soften into water, the correct degree of softening should be paste, as shown in the figure.
2.
Sift the icing sugar and add the butter until it is smooth. You don’t need to whip the butter (the color turns white and the volume becomes larger) to prevent the biscuits from swelling too much.
3.
Add the egg liquid in three times, and be sure to beat it evenly with a whisk after each addition, and then add it again when it is completely fused with the butter.
4.
Add salt, mix low-gluten flour and high-gluten flour into the batter, stir with a spatula, and then wear gloves to make the dough. Remember not to knead it to avoid gluten. (This is the basic dough, if you want to make cocoa flavor or matcha flavor, the powder is also sifted in this step)
5.
Spread a layer of plastic wrap on the chopping board, put on the dough, first shape the dough into a rectangular dough, and roll it out for a while, just like the plastic wrap, and it is convenient to press it with a mold for a while.
6.
Roll up and down thin with a rolling pin, as shown in the picture!
7.
After rolling up and down, then roll left and right. The thickness of the four sides must be the same. If the control is not good, you can find a ruler to measure it. Generally, the thickness is between 0.3 and 0.5, which is about the same thickness as an Apple mobile phone. Too thick is not easy to bake through, and too thin to be easily deformed.
8.
After rolling, cover the surface with a layer of plastic wrap and keep it in the refrigerator for more than 1 hour.
9.
When the time is up, take it out and use a mold to press out the shape you want.
10.
The pressed biscuits are sent to the middle layer of the preheated oven and bake at 150 degrees for 15 to 20 minutes. If your biscuits have a thicker base, extend the baking time. This recipe is made with high-gluten flour, so the biscuit made is absolutely flat and beautiful biscuit base. Place the baked biscuits directly in a flat place to cool.

Then use an electric whisk to beat for at least ten minutes, until there are hard peaks when the whisk is lifted. In the meantime, add a few drops of lemon juice. If you have glycerin, you can add two drops to increase the gloss of the frosting. No need to add it. Then the icing is ready. This is a harder and thicker icing. Add an appropriate amount of water to adjust the icing. The icing will be dripped in 10 seconds. The traces will disappear after 10 seconds and used for the bottom of the biscuits. 15 seconds is a drop, the trace disappears after 15 to 20 seconds, used to pull lines, draw lines, or write and draw pictures.
14.
Take a little icing sugar on the palette, add food coloring and mix with cold boiled water to fully adjust the consistency, and adjust the consistency on the board before putting it into the piping bag. The mouth of the piping bag must be cut small so that you can easily control the flow and the direction of the line. Adjust all the color frosting you need at one time.
