Chinese Almond Cookies

 Super easy to make Chinese Almond Cookies

Ingredients:

130g Ground Almonds

180g Plain Flour

100g Sugar

¼ Tsp Salt

1 tsp Baking Powder

1 tsp Bicarbonate of Soda

150ml Oil

½ Tsp Almond Extract (optional)

1 Egg for glazing

Toasted Flaked Almonds / Toasted Whole Almonds

Utensils:

Mixing Bowl

Scales

Wooden Spoon

Measuring Spoons

Small Bowl

Fork

Brush

Baking Paper

Flat Baking Trays

Wire Rack

Baking Time: 15 - 20 Minutes

Oven: 180°C

Combine all the dry ingredients and mix well. Then add the oil and almond extract (if using)

Once all mixed it should be like a damp sand texture.

Using your hands roll them into balls and place them onto your lined baking trays.

Whisk your egg with a fork in a bowl then using a brush glaze thr cookies and place some toasted flaked or whole almond on top.

(I forgot to do this even though I have some!)

Bake for 15 - 20 minutes until golden brown

Leave on the tray for a few minutes to cool then transfer onto a wire rack to cool completely.

I put 1 tsp of almond extract which was way too much and mine taste really strong like perfume artificial almond. I think they would have tasted better without rather than this over powering taste. I did think the mixture was too dry and wasn't going to stick but it did and when you eat them they are quite crumbly.
