New Year's Horseshoe Cookies

Please your loved ones by giving everyone a delicious horseshoe for good luck! On the eve of the New Year, I want to offer very simple but very tasty cookies. And since next year is the year of the Horse, it will be in the form of horseshoes. The cookies turn out very tender, crumbly and crispy, and they are very easy to prepare. And you can prepare such horseshoes in advance. Such horseshoes in a tightly closed container will safely retain their freshness for 1 week.

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking timeCooking time: 40 mins
  1. STEP 1

    STEP 1

    Everything we need to make cookies (vanilla tincture can be replaced with vanilla sugar)

  2. STEP 2

    STEP 2

    I kneaded the dough using a food processor. Mix flour, powdered sugar and nuts (for manual kneading, the nuts must be chopped in advance). Mix everything.

  3. STEP 3

    STEP 3

    Add cold butter cut into cubes and grind until butter crumbs (if you knead by hand, cut the butter into small cubes and rub it with flour with quick movements; there is no need to achieve homogeneity).

  4. STEP 4

    STEP 4

    Add vanilla tincture to the butter crumbs (if you use vanilla sugar, you need to add it along with the powder) and yolks and knead the dough.

  5. STEP 5

    STEP 5

    The result is a moist crumb (if the dough is too dry and does not come together, add 1-2 teaspoons of ice water).

  6. STEP 6

    STEP 6

    We collect the crumbs into a ball (no need to knead), wrap them in film and put them in the refrigerator for 1 hour.

  7. STEP 7

    STEP 7

    Divide the dough into several parts (while we are cutting one, all the rest are in the refrigerator). Roll out part of the dough into a rope, cut it, and form horseshoes.

  8. STEP 8

    STEP 8

    Place the horseshoes on a baking sheet and bake in a preheated oven at 180 C for about 12 minutes, until lightly golden. It cooks very quickly, so be careful!

  9. STEP 9

    STEP 9

    Our cookies are ready! If desired, you can dip each horseshoe in melted chocolate. Bon appetit!

And also easy to prepare. Today Irisha made a Snickers cake exactly according to this recipe, only instead of nuts, peanuts. Good horseshoes can be prepared and distributed as New Year's talismans. And the photo is very beautiful, as you say, straight from a magazine

Yes, from the photo I can tell that this is our Irisha, well done! And the cookies are great! I need to prepare it if there is time left, otherwise I have so much planned, but as always there is not enough time :( Although they can be prepared for the Christmas holidays :)

In order for happiness to start in your workshop, you prepare a horseshoe with an experienced hand. Give it to your guests, let it bring happiness to everyone, it will bring good luck, and there are no problems! Let it fall apart into pieces of goodness, Each guest will find his own and it will return!
