INGREDIENTS

300g all-purpose flour ...

50g roasted almonds ...

200g fresh DODONI cow butter ...

80g powdered sugar ...

½ tsp baking powder...

1 tsp Vanilla extract ...

1 shot cognac...

Extra powdered sugar for sprinkling ...

PREPARATION

Spread the almonds in a baking pan and bake in a preheated oven at 160°C on convection setting for about 8 to 10 minutes. Let them cool and break them into thick pieces with a pestle.

EXECUTION

Beat the butter and powdered sugar in a mixer bowl at high speed for about 10 minutes. The more you beat, the better they get. Then add the flour, the baking powder, the cognac and the vanilla and continue beating at a lower speed, this time for 2 minutes. Place the dough on a working surface.
Add the roasted almonds.
Shape the dough into round balls of about 15g each. Make a small cavity in the middle of each one with your finger.
Place them on a baking pan with a baking paper and bake in a preheated oven at 170°C on convection setting for 20 minutes.
Remove them from the oven and let them cool well in order to sprinkle them with powdered sugar.
