Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 250 grams All-purpose flour
- 200 grams Unsalted butter
- 100 grams Powdered sugar
- 2 large Egg yolks
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 100 grams Crushed walnuts
- 2 tablespoons Milk
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour and salt, then set aside.
In another bowl, beat the unsalted butter and powdered sugar together until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
Add the egg yolks and vanilla extract to the butter mixture and continue beating until well incorporated.
Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing gently until a soft dough forms. Be careful not to overmix.
Lightly flour a clean work surface and roll the dough out to about ¼ inch (6 mm) thickness.
Use a round cookie cutter (or a shape of your choice) to cut out the cookies, then transfer them to the prepared baking sheet.
Brush the tops of the cookies lightly with milk to help the crushed walnuts adhere.
Sprinkle a generous amount of crushed walnuts over the top of each cookie, pressing gently to ensure they stick.
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve the cookies with tea or coffee, or store them in an airtight container for up to a week.
