Ingredients

Butter (diced) 90 g

All-purpose flour 175 g

Fine granulated sugar (extra fine) 50 g

Powdered sugar 150 g

Lemon juice (adjust as needed) 2-3 teaspoons

Colorful sour candies (with wrappers) to taste

Gold and silver sugar pearls to taste

Instructions

Preheat oven

Preheat the oven to 160°C (th. 5). Grease an 18 cm square shallow mold.

Make the dough

Put the butter and flour in a mixer and blend until it reaches a breadcrumb texture. Add the sugar and mix until a dough forms. Place the dough in the mold, press down firmly and level it using the back of a spoon.

Bake the dough

Bake for 35 minutes, until the dough begins to turn golden. Cool in the mold.

Make the icing

For the decoration: place the icing sugar in a bowl and add enough lemon juice to obtain a thick, firm paste.

Prepare crushed candy

Keep the wrappers of the sour candy and crush them by hitting with a rolling pin. Remove the wrappers, place the crushed candy in a bowl and mix.

Cut and decorate

Unmold the shortbread dough onto a work surface. Cut it in half, then cut into strips. Coat the biscuit sticks with the icing, sprinkle with the crushed candy and the gold/silver sugar pearls. Let stand to dry.
