Ingredients for shortcrust pastry

- 300g white flour

- 2 eggs

- 80g sugar

- 100g butter

- 1 teaspoon baking powder

Preparation

Cut the butter into small pieces and let soften for a while at room temperature.

In a bowl put the flour, baking powder and sugar, add the butter and work with your fingertips until the mixture is crumbled.

Add the eggs, mix a bit with a fork and then work on a floured surface, with your hands until dough is smooth and homogeneous, then forming a ball, cover with plastic wrap and put it to rest in refrigerator for half an hour.

Take the pastry out of  the refrigerator and roll out with a rolling pin, cut it with a heart shape cutter. 

On some hearts make incisions with a smaller heart shape cutter. Put all the hearts  in oven and bake at 180° for about 15-20 minutes.

Let cool then put the jam on biscuits and cover with the incised heart.

Cover with icing sugar.
