Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Sift together flour and salt in a bowl.
- Put butter into the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment; mix on medium speed until pale and creamy. Mix in confectioners' sugar. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Mix in vanilla. Fold in flour mixture.
- Transfer batter to a pastry bag fitted with a 3/8-inch plain round tip (such as Ateco #802). Pipe 2 3/4-inch lengths about 3/8 inch wide (the ends should be slightly wider than the center) onto baking sheets lined with parchment, spacing about 1 inch apart. (Batter should be refrigerated if not being used immediately.)
- Bake until just golden around edges, 10 to 12 minutes, rotating sheets halfway through. Let cool on sheets 3 minutes. Transfer to wire racks; let cool completely. Cookies can be stored in airtight containers at room temperature up to 3 days.
- Use a pastry bag fitted with a plain round tip to pipe lengths of batter in rows; squeeze a bit of extra dough on the ends of each, so that the ends are slightly wider than the centers.
LANGUE DE CHAT (CAT'S TONGUE)
Ever tasted a light brittle biscuit sandwiched with either white chocolate or milk chocolate? Yes, these biscuits are known as the Langue De Chat that was possibly date to the 17th Century where at that period was the time where refined white sugar and piping bags were popular with the wealthy classes of Northern Europe. In Europe, they are sometimes known as "cat's tongue" as it is usually baked long and flat with rounded ends. These biscuits are crisp and brittle as the key ingredients includes cornflour and mainly of egg whites rather than whole egg. Because of the dry nature and ingredients used, these biscuits can be kept for quite a long time and are usually served with certain liqueurs and sparkling wines. This recipe here follows closely to the famous Pepperidge Farm's Milano Cookies. It is easy and tastes as good. Enjoy!
