Christmas Mug Cookies

Method

1. To make the Christmas Mug Cookies, start by mixing the flour and powdered sugar. Then add the butter, cut into small pieces, and the vanilla, and start working everything together with your fingertips until you get a crumbly mixture.
2. Then add the whole egg and the yolk and finish kneading fairly quickly to form a smooth, even ball of dough. Wrap it in plastic wrap and let it rest in the fridge for a couple of hours.
3. Now take the dough and roll it out on a floured work surface with a rolling pin to a thickness of half a centimeter.
4. Cut out the cookies with a cookie cutter, using whatever shape you like as long as it is small (3-4 centimeters at most).
5. Then, with a small knife, cut a rectangular slit into each cookie: you will use it to set the cookie on the rim of the mug.
6. Arrange them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake at 180 °C (350 °F) for 10 minutes. Be careful not to burn them, and don’t worry if they are soft straight out of the oven: they will firm up to the right texture as they cool.
