In a big bowl,cream ur butter with sugar till well combined and soft,add in egg,vanillah essense,lemon zest and mix well

Gradually add in your sifted flour,nd mix,using spatula or wooden spoon,u can use hand mixer😁i was too lazy to climb up and got mine from the shelf so i use blender😂😂😂😂to mix it well

And here it is,cut abt 1/4 part of the dough,nd add colour to it,mix it very well

U stretch it as shown here,and they are ready,roll it flat not too thin

Cut star shape on the red cookie dough,nd cut circles on the other,use thesame star shape and cut again on the white cookie dough also

Gently lift the cutted stars and keep aside then,and gently lift them again and place them inside the white cookies dough,repeat till all are finished,u can use the red cookie dough also as shown here, i did two of them,arrange on a baking tray and bake at pre-heated oven of 250F for 15min(please note oven temp varies so always watch them closely as u bake to avoid burnt cookies😍)

And here they are,they taste too sweet and are good combo of coffee or tea during iftar😍😍

Please note whatever measurement i give,is the actual one i used,if u try and found out some fault kindly knw the fault could be from your measurement,i always, always use measuring cups,so if u dnt have one buy pls.
