: Tips

Here are some tips to keep in mind when making Paste Flora with Raspberry Jam:.

Don’t over-mix the dough. This will cause the cookies to become tough and heavy.
Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes. This will make it easier to roll out and cut into shapes.
Make sure the cookies are completely cool before adding the raspberry jam. This will prevent the jam from melting and running off the cookies.
Don’t skimp on the powdered sugar. This adds a nice finishing touch to the cookies and a little extra sweetness.
