Beautiful and delicious New Year's cookiesYou will need:

Food film.
Parchment for baking.
Skalka.
Deep bowl.
Smaller bowl.
A small saucepan for a water bath.
Confectionery kulechek or syringe with attachments.
Molds with New Year's themes or paper patterns and a sharp knife.

For the test:

Butter 200g (1 pack).
Flour (2-3 glasses).
Sugar (0.5 cup).
Eggs 2 pcs. (for the test only yolks will be needed).
Baking powder for dough (1 teaspoon).
Citric acid (1/4 teaspoon).

For the glaze:

Sugar powder (4 cups).
Eggs (2 pieces of protein that remained after the preparation of the test).
Lemon juice (2 teaspoons).
Dye food.
Chocolate is white.
Edible jewelry (silver balls, various figures).

Making the dough In a deep bowl, mix flour with baking powder, sugar and citric acid. Form a mound with a depression on top. Put the yolks and soft butter, cut into pieces, into it.Knead the dough thoroughly with your hands. You should get a tight dough, which you should wrap in cling film and put in the refrigerator for a couple of hours.When the time has passed, take out the dough and roll it out into a layer approximately 1 cm thick.Now we cut out future cookies from this layer.The figures can be different, if you do not have the necessary molds in the form of a Christmas tree, snowflake, house or person, do not be upset. You can simply make round cookies using a glass or cup with a suitable diameter. Or cut out the appropriate blanks from paper in advance, apply them to the layer of dough and use a sharp knife to cut out a star or mitten.Place parchment paper on a baking sheet and place our cookies on top of it.Preheat the oven to 180 degrees.Our beautiful and delicious crafts need to be baked for 15 minutes. Now we wait for the cookies to cool down and begin a truly fascinating artistic process – decorating the cookies. Option 1 for decorating. In a water bath, we melt the white chocolate, pour it into a pastry bag or syringe and draw frosty patterns on our cookies.Option 2 for decoration.Let's make sugar glaze. To do this, beat the whites of raw eggs, adding powdered sugar and lemon juice little by little. The glaze should not be very liquid, but you don't need to beat it to stiff peaks either. You can add food coloring while beating.We also pour it into a pastry bag orsyringe. If you don't have such a device in your kitchen, you can take a regular strong plastic bag and make a small cut in one of the corners. The smaller it is, the thinner the line for drawing will be. Separate some of the glaze and add a little (literally a few drops) of milk or lemon juice to it. This will make it a little more liquid, which will make it easier to completely cover the surface of the cookie. To prevent the glaze from leaking, first draw the outline with the undiluted part, wait until it dries, and then paint the inner perimeter.To draw on glazedsurface, you need to wait until the previous layer dries. If you want to decorate the cookies with decorative edible decorations, such as beads, then you need to attach them to the icing that has not dried.Advice!In order for the dough, cream, and glaze to be the most delicious and best, you need to remember that eggs need a certain temperature. Yolks love warmth and sugar, and whites love cold and a little citric acid. So while you're making the dough, put the egg whites in the refrigerator.
