Overview:

Sweetcrust pastry is one of the basic pastry of French patisserie, used in many tart and cakes recipes, but it can also be rolled out and cut into biscuits, delicious with tea or coffee.

This recipe is given for those who have a mixer (Kenwood, KitchenAid or other), but it can also be done with your hands.

Please note that it's very important to make it several hours before using it, if possible the day before, as then it's much easier to work.
