Shortbread yeast dough

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   Prepare the ingredients for the dough. Each hostess probably has her own proprietary recipe for making shortbread dough, and they are slightly different from each other. Let's consider one of the simplest ways to prepare such a dough. Margarine softened at room temperature (butter can be used) mix with sifted wheat flour and grind the ingredients into fine crumbs.

2. Step 2:

   

   Pour warm milk into a glass, add sugar, stir until the sugar dissolves and pour in dry yeast. Mix again and set aside.

3. Step 3:

   

   In a bowl with flour mixture, beat in chicken eggs, add salt. Mix it up. If you plan to bake sweet products from such a dough, then add sugar to taste. For products with unsweetened sugar filling, the amount that was added to the yeast mixture is enough. To bake cookies, you can add vanilla or other spicy additives, nuts, dried fruits and other additives to taste to the dough.

5. Step 4:

   

   Pour the milk-yeast mixture into a bowl with flour and knead the dough. If it seems that there is not enough flour, the dough turns out to be runny, add a little flour. It is not necessary to knead the dough for a long time, so that it does not become tight, and the products from it are hard. The main task is to assemble the dough into a homogeneous ball of consistency.

6. Step 5:

   

   Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and put it in the refrigerator for an hour. The dough is ready for baking. From this dough, you can bake pies and pies with different fillings. After forming the dough blanks, they do not need to stand, unlike conventional yeast dough, but should be immediately sent to a preheated oven. Bon appetit!
