1 . Beat butter until soft, add sugar gradually. Blend until very light and creamy. You can use a stand mixer. |
2 . Here I used a hand mixer. Beat in, one at a time, 2 eggs and 1 egg yolk. |
4 oz ground almonds
|
Mix it in and then the flour. |
I added just a bit more flour to make a dough this consistency. |
I formed a brick and wrapped it up in plastic wrap, and chilled it in the fridge. Freezer works also. |
Take the egg white and add 1/8 cup water and whisk.
In a larger bowl I added some almond flour for coating the cookies.
Cut 1/8 inch slices and dip in the egg wash and then |
I toss the bowl to coat the cookie in the almond flour. |
Place the cookies on a baking sheet. I use to put them on a silicone mat, but I don't think they brown as well on the bottom. I sprayed a bit of non stick spray on it.
I also like to sprinkle a little sugar on top.
|
Cook in a 375 degree oven for 20 - 25 minutes. till lightly browned. |
Storing the cookies in a cookie tin will have them keep for a long time. |
