STEP 1: MAKE THE DOUGH

Put the flour, salt, butter in a mixer and mix. Now add sugar, egg and vanilla extract. Transfer the mixture on the pastry board and  knead it by hand but quickly, so that the dough doesn’t get greasy.

Wrap the dough in clingfilm and put it into the fridge for 1/2 hour.

In a bowl beat butter and sugar, then add the egg and  – little by little – almond and all-purpose flour.

Press well with fingers.
