6. Shape the Dough

Shape the dough into a compact log, approximately 2 inches in diameter. To prevent potential crumbling during the slicing process, ensure that the log is well-formed. Once shaped, wrap the log securely in plastic wrap and refrigerate it for a minimum of 1 to 2 hours.

7. Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C). While it’s heating up, line a baking sheet with parchment paper in preparation for baking.

8. Slice and Bake

After the refrigeration period, remove the dough log from the refrigerator. Slice it into discs, approximately 1/4 to 1/3 inch in thickness. If any segment crumbles during the slicing, carefully reform it using gentle hand pressure. Arrange the slices on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring at least a one-inch gap between each cookie.
