Sablé Cookies (How to Make Sablé)

Ingredients

• 1 cup cornstarch (cornflour)
• Pinch of salt
• 200 g butter
• 1 cup oil
• Powdered sugar, about 1 cup (or 175 g)
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon (≈8 g) vanilla
• 2 eggs
• Lemon zest
• 4 cups (or slightly more) flour
• For the filling :
• Jam or chocolate

Method

1. Sift the flour with the cornstarch, baking powder, and salt.
2. Place the butter at room temperature in the mixer and beat until it becomes creamy.
3. Add the oil to the butter in stages, i.e., in batches; then add the egg, lemon zest, and vanilla, and beat.
4. Add the flour mixture in batches and fold by hand just until the dough comes together; do not overwork it for a successful result.
5. Let the dough rest for half an hour in the refrigerator before shaping it.
6. Remove it and roll it thin between two sheets of plastic wrap... cut the sablés into the shapes you want and place them on a baking tray without greasing it, because sablé dough is made with butter.
7. Place the tray on the lower rack in a preheated oven for about 10 minutes, monitoring according to your oven's strength.
8. Brown them slightly on the upper rack until they reach the desired color, about 5 minutes.
9. Remove them and let the sablés cool, then decorate or sandwich every two cookies with jam or chocolate and press them together.
