Ingredients:
1 cup butter..at room temperature
1 packet vanilla sugar
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 tsp salt
2 cups flour

Add the flour and mix well until it becomes crumbly.
Now flour a surface and pour the crumbly dough on the surface, knead with your hands to form a ball.
If the mixture forms into a ball in the mixer, omit the kneading on the surface part.
Now divide the dough into two equal parts.
Take one part and add the lemon essence and the food colour, then knead well to form a ball.
Shape the two coloured doughs anyway you want.
You can even make all the dough orange instead of leaving it plain.
