Dutch Amond Cookies
Makes about 5 dozen
I have been making these lovely almond cookies every Christmas since my children were small. They are delicious!
250g butter, softened (1 cup)
400g soft light brown sugar (2 cups packed)
2 medium free range eggs
1 tsp almond extract
490g plain flour (3 1/2 cups)
1 tsp salt
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
For the filling:
42g whole blanched almonds (1/4 cup)
50g granulated sugar (1/4 cup)
1 medium free range egg yolk
1 tsp lemon juice
1/4 tsp almond extract
You will also need:
1 medium free range egg white, lightly beaten
85g whole blanched almonds (1/2 cup)
Put the ingredients for the filling into a small blender/processor. Blitz until smooth.
Preheat the oven 160*C/325*F gas mark 3. Butter several large baking sheets.
For each cookie take a spoonful of th dough and roll into a 1-inch ball. With a finger make an indentation into the centre of the ball, the. fill with about 1/4 tsp of the filling. Pinch off more dough about the size of a pea. Flatten and use this to cover the filling. Gently roll again in the palms of your hands to seal and smooth edges, Place onto the baking sheet. Repeat with remaining dough placing the filled balls 2 inches apart. Brush the tops with some of the beaten egg white and gently press a whole almond into the top of each.
Bake for 15 to 18 minutes until golden brown. Scoop off to cool on wire racks. Store in an airtight container.
