MACANESE ALMOND COOKIES



Macanese Almond Cookies image

These Macanese Almond Cookies are popular with tourists from all over the world to bring back as gifts for friends. They are similar to Pecan Sandies or Italian Butter Cookies and they are made in beautiful wooden molds, that have been handed down from generation to generation, that shape the cookie into small jewel-like shapes. They are best eaten with tea or wine.

Time 40m

Yield 8-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups mung bean flour
1 cup powdered sugar
1/2 cup ground almonds
2/3 cup shortening
1 teaspoon almond extract
2 tablespoons water
1/4 cup almonds, roughly chopped
1 small paper, cup (base of the paper cup should be a 2 inch diameter)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F.
  • Use a sharp knife or a pair of scissors to cut the top portion of the paper cup off, leaving only a 1/2" deep cookie mould. Discard the paper scraps.
  • In a large mixing bowl, mix together the flour, sugar, and ground almonds. Using your hands, mix in the shortening until the dough looks like sand.
  • Add the water and almond extract and continue mixing with your hands until thoroughly mixed.
  • Place about 5 chopped almond pieces into the paper cup mold. Over the mixing bowl, press a handful of the dough into mold and use your fingers to pack the dough into the mold and then level it off.
  • Place the mold upside-down on an ungreased cookie sheet and slowly remove the mold. Repeat this process with the remaining dough.
  • Bake the cookies for 25 mins and then let them cool for 30 minutes before eating.

  • Preheat oven to 275 degrees. In a large bowl, whisk together the mung bean flour, powdered sugar, almond meal, milk powder, cornstarch, and salt until well-combined. Add the coconut oil and peanut butter and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work it into the flour until very crumbly and thoroughly distributed. The final mixture should be dry and crumbly, but should hold together easily when squeezed.
  • To form the cookies, grease and flour (with more mung bean flour or regular flour) a 24-cup miniature cupcake tin. If desired, place a sliced almond into each cup — they’ll be on top once the cookies are inverted out of the tin. Press 1 to 2 tablespoons of the cookie mixture into each cup. (See Notes on forming the cookies in the flower shape pictured.)
  • Bake at 275 degrees for 15 minutes. Let cool completely, then overturn the cupcake tin onto a large baking sheet and bang the tin firmly against the sheet. The cookies should come right out.
