Step-by-Step Method
Prepare the oven
Bake Heat to 200°C. Place baking paper on the tray so that the cookies can be separated easily.
Knead the dough
Mix butter and granulated sugar briefly in a bowl. Add the flour and salt (if using); Make a soft dough that does not stick to the hand by pouring the water slowly. Be careful not to knead too much and heat the dough.
Shape
Tear off walnut-sized pieces from the dough. Roll it on the counter like a thin strip and bring the two ends closer together to form an “8” shape. If desired, lightly dip the top in granulated sugar.
Bake

Cool and serve
Let the cookies sit on the tray for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack. You can serve it when it's warm.
