Pictorial

* I used normal sugar and grounded it in the mixer. Add powdered sugar to get smooth cookies.
* Once you added the flour, mix it in low-speed. If you over-mix the dough, cookies will become hard.
** Use commercial icing sugar to get smooth filling.
** Add milk to adjust the cream consistency. If your cream is perfect, skip the milk.
