These cookies are so easy to make, we highly recommend trying them! What recipe should we tackle next?
@jebarijihed 2 жыл бұрын
They are so similar to some traditional cookies, we do in Tunisia. If you add a little bit of cinnamon power and some orange flower water, replace the almonds, nuts with mandarin orange or date pates you get our recipe. Notice that the cinnamon power should be almost nothing a small very small amount

I would definitely recommend whisking the sugar and almond together PRIOR TO dumping them into the liquids to ensure equal distribution. Also, be sure to blanch your almonds (remove the skins).

Thank you so much for this recipe I love it! My oven oven cooks way faster than yours I had to reduce the baking time a bit but they are amazing! I’m starting experimenting a bit with the recipe ( replaced 100g of almond flour by hazelnut flour and added a bit of Nutella inside the hole at the top it’s absolutely delicious ! ) I will also experiment with lemon, orange and orange flower extract (not sure about the translation here I just translated that from French sorry if no one knows what I’m talking about haha) Hope this message gives some inspiration to other people to try this recipe too ! It’s also so easy you can do it with kids like I did with my 4 year old daughter ! Thanks again from France ❤️

This is really interesting. I'm from Sweden and we have exactly the same cookie here. But I guess most of Europe share food recipes. My prehistoric ancestor went to Italy and took some "life styles" and the other way around. I find it quite interesting that Eva shows something and we have the same or something very similar. We'll never the less harper you need to learn the superior system the metric one and what ever temperature is called. 😉

As a child, between November /December, i remember my granma preparing "Pan'e Saba", based on wine must, almonds and sultanas..... Wrapped in transparent paper, it was a very welcome Christmas gift in every household..... A small piece was always accompanied by a sip of moscato (very sweet wine, sometimes, in Sardinia, still called "women wine" 😁) at the end of the dinner

Always have your eggs at room temperature no matter what you are cooking. Good Tip: Start preheating the oven, when you put the dough in the freezer to chill. Portion Tip: Use a small ice cream scoop so all cookies are the same size. These remind ME of the Thumbprint cookies yours truly bakes for Christmas. There are no eggs. But the three sticks of butter binds it all. These little balls get press by your thumb to make little wells. Then filled with jam. My favorite flavors to use are apricot and blackberry. Strawberry is good. Can give you the recipe if you want. ✌️♥️🌹

I though that almond paste and marzipan was the same, but I googled now, and I discovered that there is a difference on quantity of ingredients, almond paste is used for biscuits stuffing, marzipan is more shapeable so it is used for decorations... by the way I like marzipan sweets on Christmas time 😋
