Work the dough until it achieves consistency.
Gradually incorporate the softened butter, a few pieces at a time.
Add the salt and the lemon zest.
Finally, mix in the vanilla extract.
Step 3: Let the Dough Rise
Continue working the dough until it becomes smooth and stringy. You can use a stand mixer for this.
Form the dough into a ball and let it rise for 2-3 hours, or until it doubles in volume.
Step 4: Ready to Use
Once the dough has doubled in volume, it’s ready to be used for our Cornetti.
Step 5: Divide the Dough
Divide the dough into 8 equal pieces.
Step 6: Shape the Dough
Shape each piece into a ball and allow them to rest for 10 minutes.
Step 7: Roll Out the Dough
Partially roll out each ball with a rolling pin on a lightly floured surface.
Let the dough rest for another 10 minutes.
Step 8: Thin Sheets
Roll out the sheets again until they are thin and as large as a flat plate.
