Preparação

Knead until the dough is soft and even.
Rinse a bowl with hot water, cover the dough with the bowl and leave it alone for about 30 minutes.
Cut dough in 12 pieces of the same size.
Cover table with flour and roll the pieces of dough as thin as possible. You may use your knee as shown on the picture below - therefore the name "knee cookie".
