ALMOND COOKIES


Ingredients:
(recipe adapted from here)

 170g cake flour
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp baking powder
75g almond nips
50g icing sugar
1 tbsp almond powder (optional)
4 tbsp melted butter + (3 - 4) tbsp corn oil (It is very dry. I added 1 more tbsp of melted butter and 2 tbsp more of corn oil until the dough is manageable)
Egg wash: 1 egg yolk + 1 tsp water

Method: 

1. Sieve flour, icing sugar, baking soda and baking powder together 3 times.
2. Add in the almond nips and mix well.
3. Make a well in the middle of the flour & almond mixture. Stir in the butter oil mixture and mix till a dough is 

    formed. If dough is too dry, add in corn oil by teaspoonful.
4. Roll the dough on a floured surface and cut into shape with your cookie cutter.
5. Glace with egg wash and bake on a lined pan at 175C for 15 - 25 minutes or till colour is golden brown or the 

    golden colour that you like.
