Almond Cookies image

More Italian goodies. Passive cook time is per cookie sheet. This makes a massive batch since they are normally made for weddings and other large events so you may want to make half a batch at a time as I do.

Time 58m

Yield 160 cookies, 160 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 eggs
1 1/2 cups sugar
1/2 cup canola oil
8 ounces orange juice
1 teaspoon almond extract
1/2 cup ground almonds
6 teaspoons baking powder
5 cups flour
3/4 cup icing sugar
160 whole almonds

Steps:

  • Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit and lightly grease cookie sheets (I use canola oil to do this).
  • Mix eggs, sugar, oil, orange juice, and almond extract in a bowl.
  • Mix ground almonds, baking powder, and flour in a separate bowl and add to liquid ingredients.
  • Stir until blended.
  • Form into measuring teaspoon size balls.
  • Roll balls in icing sugar.
  • The dough is pretty sticky so you may want to grease your hands with a bit of oil to make your life easier.
  • Press one whole almond into middle of each cookie.
  • Bake for 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Cool on racks.
