CNY 2015: 2nd bake of the year, Little Sheep

Whilst waiting for the almond crisps to bake, I prepared the ingredients for the following bake, Little Sheep German Cookies. Basically it uses German Cookies recipe but moulding the cookie into Little Sheep. It is just too adorable to not try to bake it. Last year I've baked German cookies so I kinda have an idea of what to expect. So here's the recipe:

Little Sheep German Cookies
(Yield approx. 80 pieces)

250g butter
80g icing sugar
250g potato flour
160g superfine flour
Chocolate chips and.black sesame for decoration

1) Beat butter and sugar till light n fluffy
2) Sieve potato flour and superfine flour. Mix them into butter and sugar mixture
3) Put the batter into the fridge for 20-30 minutes so that it is easier to shape
4) Shape the batter into round shape, add 2 chocolate chips as horns, sesame seed as eyes and 2 small ball between horns
5) Bake them for 15-20 minutes at 150 Celsius

Note:
1) Can replace superfine flour with normal flour
2) Use cheap local made chocolate as they are more heat resistant, you do not want the horns to melt when they are baked

Ready to bake

Baking of Little Sheep

Due to my body condition, I made half of the batter and kept half for tomorrow. It's indeed time consuming shaping the sheep.
