Instructions

  1. Not surprised! Hard-boiled egg yolks are actually used. I separate the raw eggs and make macaroons out of the egg white.
  2. I heat the egg yolks in a water bath.
  3. Mix the softened butter with the sugar and flour. Press the egg yolks through a fine sieve. Put in the fridge for half an hour.
  4. Process like a shortcrust pastry dough, i.e. roll out and cut out. I brush egg yolks on it and sprinkle sugar on top.
  5. Bake at 175 degrees in the middle rack until golden.
  6. The cookies are very fine and tender!

About Editorial Staff

The Boss Kitchen editorial staff oversees content review, fact-checking, and recipe verification across the site. Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
