Ingredients
- For the cake
- 100 grams Pine nuts
- 70 grams soft butter
- 250 grams sugar
- 2 eggs (size M)
- 2 Tbsps Apricot liqueur
- 250 grams Pastry flour
- 1 generous pinch Baking powder
- 50 grams ground almonds
Preparation steps
Finely grind the pine nuts. Beat the butter until creamy with the whisk of the hand mixer. Gradually add the sugar, eggs and apricot liqeuer to the butter, and continue beating for 5 minutes until frothy. Mix the flour with baking powder, ground pine nuts and almonds, and mix into the egg-butter mixture to form a smooth dough. Cover the dough with plastic wrap and chill for 1 hour in the refrigerator.
Cut the almonds in half lengthwise. Spread the wafers on the baking sheets. Divide the dough into cherry-sized balls and put each ball on a wafer. Press an almond half in the middle of each dough ball. Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (fan: 160°C, gas mark 2-3) (approximately 350°F) for about 15 minutes.
Take out the baking sheets from the oven and trim the excess wafers, if desired. Serve the cookies warm or cool.
