Steps:
- 1. Combine flour, baking powder, semolina pinch of salt and ground almonds
- 2. Blend the sugar and butter in a large bowl, adding 1 beaten egg with the flour mixture. Knead the mixture until it forms a smooth paste. Make small walnut-size balls with the mixture, using a little butter on your hands to prevent sticking.
- 3. Place balls on a greased baking sheet and slightly flatten the balls. Press a blanched almond into the center of each ball. Brush with a beaten egg yolk and bake at 350 degrees F for 25-30 minutes.
- 4. To make the syrup, bring the sugar and water to a boil, then simmer uncovered for 15 minutes. Add the lemon juice and allow syrup to cool. Pour over the syrup and refrigerate. Serve chilled with cream, if desired.
