CRUNCHY ORANGE-ALMOND COOKIES (N'ZUDDI)
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Spread the almonds on a baking sheet and toast for 15 minutes, or until deep golden brown. Let cool.
- Set aside 36 almonds. Grind the remaining almonds to a coarse powder in a food processor or in small batches in a coffee grinder. Transfer to a medium mixing bowl and sift in the flour, baking soda, and baking powder.
- In a large mixing bowl, with a wooden spoon, beat the butter and sugar until blended. Beat the egg, then beat in the orange zest, juice, vanilla, and salt. Stir in the flour-almond mixture.
- Pinch off a tablespoon of dough at a time, roll into a ball between the palms of your hands, and place 3 inches apart on greased baking sheets. Flatten the balls to 1/2 inch thick under your palms, then gently coax the edges inward to create a loose square shape. Press a whole almond in the center of each cookie.
- Bake the cookies for 30 to 35 minutes, or until deep golden brown. Let cool for 5 minutes before removing from the pans, then cool on a rack. The cookies will become very crunchy as they cool.

Steps:
- Make the dough: In a mixer bowl, beat butter, sugar, almond extract, and salt until smooth. With mixer on low speed, add flour and orange zest; mix just until a dough forms. With a wooden spoon, rubber spatula, or your hands, gently mix in almonds.
- Freeze the dough: On a piece of waxed paper, form dough into a rectangular log, 12 inches long, 2 1/2 inches wide, and 1 inch thick. Wrap log in the paper, and freeze until firm, at least 1 hour and up to 3 months. If freezing longer than 1 day, wrap log again, in plastic wrap.
- Bake the shortbread: Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Remove dough from freezer. (If dough has been in freezer a long time and is frozen solid, let it sit at room temperature 30 minutes so it slices without crumbling.)
- With a sharp knife, cut dough into 1/4-inch-thick slices; place on ungreased baking sheet at least 1 inch apart. Bake until edges just begin to turn golden, 20 to 25 minutes. Cool 5 minutes on baking sheet; transfer cookies to a rack to cool completely.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325°F, with racks in upper and lower thirds. In a medium bowl, whisk together both flours and salt. Beat butter with both sugars and zest in a stand mixer fitted with paddle attachment on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Reduce speed to low; gradually add flour mixture, beating just until a dough forms.
- Scoop dough using a 1 1/8-inch scoop (about 1 1/2 teaspoons); roll into balls and arrange on parchment-lined baking sheets, 1 inch apart. With the tip of your pinkie, create a deep well in center of each ball. Refrigerate 15 minutes.
- Bake 10 minutes. Remove from oven; reshape indentations with the tip of the handle of a wooden spoon. Return to oven; bake until cookies are lightly browned on bottoms and set in centers, 8 to 10 minutes more.
- Let cool on sheets on wire racks 10 minutes. Gently toss in confectioners' sugar to lightly coat; let cool completely. Just before serving or packing, sift more confectioners' sugar over cookies to coat. Bring marmalade to a boil in a small pot. Spoon 1/2 teaspoon into each well. Let stand until marmalade is set, about 15 minutes.
