STEP 1/29
First, prepare all the ingredients according to the measurements
- Remove the cold air from butter and eggs.
- I don't recommend replacing sugar powder with sugar for this cookie.
If you use sugar..You'll be able to see a lot of cookies spread out;;;
- If you don't have vanilla extract, you can use rum.
In my case, I used homemade vanilla extract.
-You can use natural powder strawberry or green tea powder instead of food coloring
STEP 2/29
First, let the butter be a mayonnaise texture.
In this weather, if you leave it at room temperature for 30 minutes, the spatula will fit well.
STEP 3/29
Then add sugar powder and mix lightly.
When you make watermelon cookies, it's not like you're touching them
Please do it as if you're mixing it lightly
STEP 4/29
And now add the eggs and vanilla extract.
After you put it in, mix it lightly
If you mess around too much here, it can spread to the point where you lose your original form later on!
STEP 5/29
Then, add the soft flour that has been sifted
If you want a softer texture, you can use gravity powder
I added flour to make it more crispy.
STEP 6/29
If you mix it like this
STEP 7/29
Divide the basic dough by half and let it rest for a while.
When I make cookies from time to time, you can see that I have a character shape or a pause.
As you can see from the top
The dough is getting tough!
But after an hour of tissue in the refrigerator or 20 minutes of tissue in the freezer
STEP 8/29
It's hard enough to be easily molded by hand.
So, especially in summer, you have a lot of intermediate breaks.
Usually, when you make cookies...Think of it as a refrigerated tissue or a frozen tissue.
STEP 9/29
In the cookie dough that's hardened to a certain extent
They put in food coloring
When it comes to watermelon, isn't it red and green?
So I'm going to add the red food coloring and knead it
STEP 10/29
It's a dough equivalent to /2.
I added food coloring to it to make it look red
STEP 11/29
And the other half of the dough, right??
Half of it again!! In other words, put green food coloring into the dough that is 1/4 of the total dough
Mix it like this, put it in a bag, and put the green dough in the refrigerator
Just put 1/4 of the dough in the refrigerator as it is
STEP 12/29
The red dough will be made into a round shape like this and will go through a period of rest in the refrigerator.
I think 30 minutes is the best time in the freezer.
These days, the weather is very..Because it's hot.
In my case, when I make a circular cookie shape
Cooking foil or rapsim, right? You push the dough into it and make it into a shape.
STEP 13/29
If you put it in with the core, it hardens like this!
And the white dough that I put in the refrigerator earlier!
Push it according to the length of the cookie
STEP 14/29
You can roll it around like this.
If you look at the watermelon, the white dough is the white skin
STEP 15/29
Then, the green skin should be expressed, right?
If you think the green dough is too hard to handle
Check it out before you take out the batter you put in the freezer
so that it's soft enough to handle it
STEP 16/29
Like this, wrap it with the green watermelon cookie dough
STEP 17/29
That's how we finished making watermelon cookies!
I hardened it in the freezer for an hour and a half to two hours.
It's a frozen cookie that's made one day before and baked the next day.
After the shape is complete, oh my! I didn't take it out. What should I do? You don't have to.
After half a day, you can just take it out and bake it.
STEP 18/29
But! It's hard if it's too hard when you cut it.
Let it soften at room temperature for 5 to 10 minutes and cut it
STEP 19/29
The highlight of making watermelon cookies!
cutting the dough
Look at the shape~~~~~
STEP 20/29
It's like when you cut the watermelon in half, right?
STEP 21/29
And then you're going to pan it out a lot.
STEP 22/29
Before cutting, preheat the oven to 160-170 degrees
After you finish the oven shower for 10 to 15 minutes!
STEP 23/29
Ta-da! The watermelon cookie dough is baked and served.
But right then!! Don't move it to the cooling net
STEP 24/29
Cut it in half with a knife.
And let stand like this for 3 to 5 minutes.
STEP 25/29
Then, you're done making watermelon cookies with a live side!
STEP 26/29
Now that the cookie is complete with watermelon color
It's the peak! I need to express the seeds, right?
STEP 27/29
With a chocolate pen, like this!
Please breathe life into the watermelon cookie
STEP 28/29
Didn't the watermelon cookie really come alive?
STEP 29/29
Everyone, try making it, too
It's a watermelon cookie that's easier than you than you think.
You'll be able to make it easily!
Total dough ratio
1/2 red dough of the main dough
1/2 the amount of the remaining 1/2 of the dough, i.e. 1/4 the amount of white
Half of the remaining 1/2 of the dough, 1/4 of the dough is green
