Instructions:

For the Christmas tree cookies, place all ingredients in a bowl or on a work surface and knead quickly with your hands to form a shortbread dough (do not knead too long, dough will become burnt by hand heat and lose its binding).

Let rest in refrigerator, covered with plastic wrap, for 2 to 3 hours before working.

Roll out the dough on a floured work surface and cut out the squares with a cookie cutter.

Arrange the cut out cookies on a baking tray lined with baking paper and bake in a preheated oven at 160 ° C hot for 10-12 minutes.

In the meantime, mix the grated pumpkin seeds with the marzipan and 1 tsp pumpkin seed oil.

On a cling film put the mass. On top of it put another cling film. This makes it easier to roll out the very sticky marzipan mass. Cut out small fir trees.

Glue the cooled squares together with marzipan. Then cover the squares with icing and glue on the smaller pumpkin seed marzipan fir trees.
