  2. Add the egg, butter, and flour to the mixture and knead the dough, letting it rise for at least an hour and a half.
  3. Divide the risen dough into 10 equal balls, roll one ball as thin as possible, and generously spread with butter.
  4. Layer the second rolled ball on top of the first and spread with butter. Repeat this process for all 10 balls.
