Prepare the shortbread dough: whisk together the sugar, salt, vanilla, and soft butter. Add the egg and mix well.
Add the flour in several stages: start by mixing with a whisk, then finish with your hands.
Wrap the dough in cling film and flatten it. Chill for 15 minutes.
Roll out the dough on a floured work surface. Cut into rectangles measuring 3.5 x 1.5 inches (9 x 4 cm).
Add small strips measuring 0.2 x 3.5 inches (0.5 x 9 cm) to the top of the pastry rectangles, pressing them down to stick.
Bake for 10 minutes at 350°F (180°C), then leave to cool completely. Fill the inside of the cookies with melted milk chocolate.
Finally, place M&M's or smarties of all colors in the chocolate and chill for 15 minutes.
All set!
