Ingredients
Ingredients for the ricotta shortcrust pastry:
250g of flour
250g of ricotta
100g of butter
80g of sugar
1 teaspoon of baking powder
To fill:
jam to taste
nuts cream
.
Instructions
In a planetary mixer, mix the flour with the cold butter cut into chunks, until a sandy mixture is obtained.
At this point add the sugar and yeast and then the ricotta. Continue to knead until a homogeneous dough is obtained.
Knead again by hand for a few seconds on a work surface and wrap in cling film.
Put in the fridge to rest for about half an hour.
After
the time has elapsed, resume the dough and roll it out quite thinly on a
floured surface, a couple of millimeters at the most.
With a round cookie cutter, cut the dough into many circles (about 35-40 should come out).
On
each one, place a scant teaspoon of jam in the center (be careful not
to overdo the filling, otherwise you cannot close the edges well and
during cooking the jam comes out of the biscuit), close the crescent
biscuit by pressing lightly on the edges in such a way to make the dough
adhere well.
Place the biscuits thus obtained on a baking sheet
lined with parchment paper and bake in a preheated oven at 180 ° for
15-18 minutes or until they have reached a light golden color.
Allow to cool and sprinkle with powdered sugar.
