Here's a recipe of my favourite spanish cookies. Yummy!
Panellets de Pinyones
Ingredients:
2 1/4 pounds of raw almonds ( 1 Kg )
2 1/4 pounds of sugar
1 box of instant mashed potatoes (dry)
1 egg
pine nuts
Mash the almonds. Put in a big bowl the mashed almonds, make a hole in the center and add the sugar to the hole. Prepare the mashed potatoes with 2 glasses of almost boiling water and the contents of the box. Pour it (very hot to mix easily ) on top of the sugar and mix everything together until you get a compact paste. Let it rest until the paste is cold. Form the paste into little balls (about 1 inch diameter), soak them with beaten egg, roll them in the pine nuts until covered. Bake at 375 F, 8-10 minutes. You can change the flavors, adding to the paste shredded coconut, instant coffee, cocoa...
