Preparation
- Step 1
Combine the sugar, pastry flour, almond flour, cocoa, vanilla powder and salt. Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse sand. Stir in the egg until the dough just comes together. With floured hands, gather the dough into a ball, divide in two and form thick disks. Wrap in plastic and refrigerate at least 2 hours and up to 3 days.
