Ingredients (for 30-40 cookies)

  • 150 g / 5 oz brown sugar

  • 300 g / 10 oz wheat flour type 405 (finely ground)
  • 100 g / 3,5 oz grounded almonds (almond flour)

  2. In a separate bowl mix the eggs with sugar and vanilla extract (with a whisk or a mixer).

  4. Add softened butter in small pieces to the flour and mix in with a wooden stick or your hand.
  5. Add mixture of eggs and knead the dough with your hands, but not too long.

  8. Cut off a third of the dough and roll it out to a layer about half a centimeter thick.
  9. Cut out small cookies with a mold or a small cup.
