Almond Cookies 2



It's been so long since I have sink my palate into this fragrance and tangy almond cookies.




This is really a good recipe, the cookies texture is soft and sandy with a touch of salt that make you can't stop at one. Even my dad like it very much too and some of my colleague said they can't stop at eating one. I'm so glad that many people give this cookies a thumps up!


This surely is a good keeping recipe for my CNY goodies list. Perhaps I will bake it again because this cookies is so addictive.

Ingredient:

  • 120g ground almond (Sift until super fine, those bit and pieces that can't sift through keep aside)
  • 95g caster sugar 
  • ¼ tsp salt 
  • 180g plain flour (I use cake flour as I run out of plain flour)
  • 1 tsp baking powder 
  • 1 tsp baking soda 
  • 122ml cooking oil (I used canola oil)
  • 1 egg yolk (Beaten and mixed with a few drops of oil, for glazing)
Method:
  1. Sift ground almond, caster sugar, salt, plain flour, baking powder, baking soda and mix together.
  2. Combine cooking oil and the dry ingredients in a mixer, mix at lowest speed to form a dough (about 30 sec to 1 min).
  3. Scale the dough at 7 gm each and roll them into ball. Arrange each ball on lined baking trays and glaze the top surfaces.
  4. Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C for 18mins or until lightly browned. Cool well before storage.
