2
Sift the cake and almond flour together.
-
3
Add caster sugar into the butter.

4
Mix as though grinding until white and fluffy.

11
Rest in the refrigerator for about an hour.
-
12
Knead the cooled and hardened dough on the work surface dusted with flour (bread flour).
-
13
Be careful not to make the dough too soft!
-
14
If the dough gets too soft, cool in the refrigerator again.
-
15
Divide the dough in half, and form into a log of your favorite size.
-
16
I roll each portion into a roughly 2cm-wide log.
-
17
Shape them smaller than you think, because the dough swells during baking!
-
18
Wrap with plastic wrap, and rest in the refrigerator again for more than an hour.
-

You can freeze the dough at this step.
-
20
Take out from the refrigerator, and roll the dough again to soften the surface a bit.
