Linzer Cookies Christmas Tree

First, we need to choose a cookie cutter. We will make the tree out of identically shaped cookies. Stars are the obvious choice, but if we do not have them, we can also use circles or flowers. We chose the classic route, the stars. It is important to have at least three sizes of the chosen cutter. 

Ingredients for Linzer Christmas cookies, Linzer dough recipe and dough kneading can be found below… 

Instructions

First, prepare baking sheets and cookie cutters. Take the dough out of the fridge. Turn the oven on at 160°C. Let the dough rest for a while, so that it does not crack whilst rolling and we roll a layer.

We have prepared cookie cutter of three different sizes. For each tree, cut out two pieces of each size. So when gluing together, the tree is more stable. If we have five different sizes of the cookie cutters, one of each is enough. Bake smaller shapes separately to avoid burning them. They will bake faster.

Glue the stars together with jam

Start with the biggest stars at the bottom and work your way up to the smallest ones at the top.

Turn the each star opposingly to the previous one

Glue the stars together with the help of jam, just as we do when making Linzer cookies. We always turn the stars opposingly to the previous, so that the tips of the stars come out of the gaps made by the previous star. The finished tree will look better.
