3. Form the dough into rolls about 2 cm thick (approx. 20 cm long) on ​​a work surface lightly sprinkled with flour and chill for 30 minutes.

4. Cut the rolls into 2 cm thick slices. Form each slice into a ball (approx. 12 g each) with your hands. Place balls on a baking tray lined with baking paper. Use the handle of a wooden spoon to make a well in the center of each ball. Bake the balls in the preheated oven at 180 degrees (fan oven 160 degrees) on the middle shelf for about 10-12 minutes. Remove from the baking tray, let cool completely on a wire rack and dust with powdered sugar.
