Shortbread pieces

  3. Pinch off small pieces of dough and arrange them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  4. Bake in an oven preheated to 180°C for 15-20 minutes, then remove and let cool.
Cream and assembly

  2. Add the cooled cookie pieces to the cream and mix everything well.

Notes

The smaller the dough pieces, the more "anthill-like" the texture of the finished cake.
