Ingredients

Directions

1. 1

   Cut butter into pieces. Knead butter, flour, egg, vanillin sugar and 75 g icing sugar first with the dough hooks of the hand mixer, then with your hands to a smooth dough. Wrap dough in foil and chill for approx. 30 minutes

2. 2

   Roll out the dough 2-3 mm thin on a floured work surface and cut out shooting stars (approx. 7 cm long) and spread them on 2 baking trays lined with baking paper. Knead the rest of the dough again and process in the same way

3. 3

   Bake the trays one after the other in a preheated oven (electric cooker: 200 °C/ convection oven: 175 °C/ gas: level 3) for about 8 minutes. Take out and let cool on a cake rack

4. 4

   Knead marzipan and 100 g icing sugar and colour pink with food colouring. Roll out marzipan thinly between 2 layers of foil. Cut out shooting stars and cut them a little smaller than the shortcrust pastry shooting stars. Warm up the jelly a little and stir until smooth. Brush the shortcrust star snuffs with some jelly and put the marzipan star snuffs on top. Dust with icing sugar
