ALMOND VANILLA COOKIES
Mandelkakor med vanilj
Makes 20
INGREDIENTS:
Please see conversion chart below! :o)
300 g almonds
4 dl all-purpose white flour
4 dl sugar
pinch salt
2 eggs
1/2 tsp baking powder
1 vanilla stick
2 oranges
METHOD
First, melt approx 1 dl sugar for caramel in a frying pan.
Add almonds when the caramel is ready - be careful not to burn it! -
and mix with the caramel.
Remove from heat and let almonds cool. Chop them.
(You can make a little extra to have with coffee
or just as candy - they're delicious.)
Split the vanilla stick lengthwise, scrape out the seeds and mix them
with remaining sugar until finely parted.
Add eggs, juice and grated peel from the oranges, salt, baking powder,
and flour.
Mix to a batter and add the browned almonds. Drop out the batter on a
baking plate and bake at 200C/400F (Be careful - they might float
out so they'll need their space) around 10 minutes or so,
depending on how thick they are. Enjoy!
