Calories 127kcal
Ingredients
Self-Rising Flour
- 6 1/4 cups flour
- 3 tbsp baking powder
- 1/2 tbsp salt
Other Ingredients
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 lb unsalted butter softened
- 3 egg yolks
- 4 tbsp brandy
- 5 drops vanilla
- 1 1/2 cups whole almonds finely chopped
- 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
Instructions
- Pre-heat your oven to 375°.
- Cream the softened butter with a mixer. Add sugar gradually, and beat together.
- Beat in the egg yolks. Then add the brandy and vanilla.
- Add in the flour gradually, until fully incorporated. If it feels sticky, add more flour.
- If you have whole almonds, add to a food processor, until they are finely chopped. It may help to add a little at a time.
- Incorporate the almonds into the dough, and mix well.
- Take the dough out, and knead into a ball.
- To make each cookie uniform, use a 1/8 measuring cup and roll into balls. Place on a greased cookie sheet. The cookies will expand only a little bit in the oven.
- Bake for 18 minutes, until they are a creamy color. Do not let them brown.
- Let the cookies cool. Place on a dish that has been dusted with powdered sugar. Or you can use cupcake liners for each cookie. Then dust with additional powdered sugar on top. Enjoy!
