Polenta Cookies

6 ingredients
3 steps

Ingredients

  • 1 cup plain flour
  • 1/4 cup fine polenta (cornmeal)
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 2/3 cup butter, chopped
  • 2 yolks from medium-sized eggs
  • zest of one lemon, finely grated

Directions

  1. 1
    Combine the flours and sugar in a bowl, add the chopped butter and process in a mixer or, if mixing by hand, rub into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.
  2. 2
    Add the yolks and lemon zest and mix until you form a smooth ball of dough. Rest the dough at least 30 minutes in the fridge (it can also be left overnight).
  3. 3
    Roll the dough on a well floured surface until about 1/3 inch thick and cut out rounds with a cookie cutter (about 2 inches in diameter). Place on a baking sheet and bake at 350°F for about 15 minutes or until just golden.
