Rich Cardamom Cookies Notes
I recently baked these for a potluck and the guests raved about them because they are unusual and delicious.
Ingredients
- 2 cups cake flour
- 4 teaspoons ground cardamom
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup butter, softened
- 1/2 cup white sugar
- 1/2 cup ground almonds
- For Decoration:
- 1/3 cup powdered sugar
- 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cardamom
- sliced almonds
Serves / Yields
makes 2 dozen
Preparation Instructions
Preheat oven to 375. Grease 2 baking sheets.
Combine flour, cardamom and salt. In a seperate bowl, beat butter until creamy, and add sugar. Continue to beat until light and fluffy. Gradually beat in flower mixture until well-blended, stir in ground almonds.
In a small bowl, stir together powdered sugar and cardamom. Shape dough into 1 1/2 inch balls, coat in sugar-spice mixture. Place 1 1/2 inches apart on baking sheets. Dip the bottom of a glass into sugar mixture and flatten cookies to 1/2 inch thick rounds. Decorate with sliced almonds.
Bake cookies until golden brown, about 12-14 minutes. Remove sheets to wire racks to cool 2-3 minutes. Remove cookies to wire racks to cool completely.
