How do you make spelled cookies?

Mix the loose ingredients, then add the rest.
We work out a smooth mass, which we then leave to rest – the longer, the better, even until the next day.
Roll out the dough and cut out your favorite shapes.
Place on a baking sheet lined with baking paper, bake in a preheated oven at 170 °C for about 10 minutes, remove when the cookies start to turn golden.
Wait until it cools down and then combine with the selected marmalade.
