Knead the dough on a clean surface for about 2 minutes until smooth.
Roll small balls of dough, shaping them into flowers and arranging on the tray.
Flatten each dough ball gently to create petal shapes.

Allow cookies to cool for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
