Time 26m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

7 tablespoons (3 1/2 ounces/100 g) unsalted butter
1 tablespoon/14 g vanilla powder
7 tablespoons/100 g icing sugar (confectioners' sugar)
4 egg whites
1 whole egg
3 1/2 ounces/100 g flour

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to about 350 degrees F.
  • In a mixing bowl, add the butter, vanilla powder, and icing sugar. Whip the mixture to a creamy and fluffy consistency. Slowly add the egg whites and the whole egg to the mixture and continue mixing until fully combined. Then slowly add the flour and mix well until fluffy and uniform in texture.
  • Place the mixture into a piping bag and squeeze out approximately 2 1/2-inch/6 cm long strips (about 2 1/2-inch/6 cm apart) onto a greased baking sheet. Strips will flatten and expand in the oven into the shape of a 'cat's tongue'. Bake for approximately 6 minutes, or until golden.

Time 40m

Yield 36

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 cup cold unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1 cup superfine sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup all-purpose flour
3 large egg whites

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Lightly grease 2 baking sheets.
  • Cream butter cubes for about 1 minute in a bowl with an electric mixer until smooth and the color has turned pale yellow. Add sugar and vanilla extract; continue the creaming process until the mixture is smooth. Beat in the egg whites, 1 at a time, on low speed until batter is light and fluffy. Mix in flour until just combined--do not overmix!
  • Transfer batter into a pastry bag with a medium plain tip and pipe dough in 2-inch "tongues" onto the prepared baking sheets.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until cat tongues turn golden brown on the edges, about 10 minutes.
