The combination of butter and oil results in a soft and manageable dough, while the lemon zest adds a fresh, citrusy aroma that balances the sweetness. The final texture is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, perfect for decorating with chocolate and peanuts.

Variations and tips

You can easily customize them: substitute dark chocolate with white or milk chocolate, swap peanuts for chopped almonds, or use another jam (strawberry or raspberry) for a different flavor. If you don't have a piping bag, you can form small balls with your hands and flatten them slightly. Baking time may vary depending on your oven, so check the cookies after 12 minutes.
