Ingredients
    Dough
  • 245 g flour
  • 13 g powdered sugar
  • 3 g baking soda
  • 2 g baking powder
  • 35 g vegetable oil
  • 135 g Greek yogurt
  • Nutella or Finetti
Instructions
    Step 1:
  1. 1
    In a bowl, add 245 g of flour. Sift in 13 g of powdered sugar, 3 g of baking soda, and 2 g of baking powder. Mix the dry ingredients well.
  2. 2
    Next, add 35 g of vegetable oil and 135 g of Greek yogurt. Gently mix with a spatula until the ingredients are slightly incorporated, then knead by hand until you get a smooth dough.
  3. Step 2: Resting the Dough
  4. 3
    Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and let it rest in a cool place for 10 minutes.
  5. Step 3: Rolling Out the Dough
  6. 4
    After the 10-minute rest, roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface until it's about half a centimeter thick. Use a cup or an 8 cm round cutter to cut the dough into circles. Gather the dough scraps, form a ball, wrap it again in plastic, and let it rest for 20 minutes before rolling and cutting again.
  7. Step 4: Filling the Cookies
  8. 5
    Place a teaspoon of Nutella in the center of each dough circle. Close the dough carefully by pressing the edges, ensuring the Nutella stays inside and doesn’t leak during baking.
  9. Step 5: Freezing and Baking
  10. 6
    Place the filled cookies in the freezer for 30 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Once the cookies are chilled, bake them for 7-8 minutes.
