Cover a baking sheet with parchment paper, and using a pastry bag form the cookies. For the template, take an A4 sheet on which you draw in pencil two dashes of the desired size of the biscuits, and slip it under the parchment leaf.
(For the biscuit background):
Pour some dough into a circle on a baking sheet. Once cooked and cooled you will cut it to the diameter of the mold. Sprinkle with icing sugar. Bake 8 to 10 minutes (watch, the cookies color very quickly). Take them out and let them cool on a rack
