Ingredients for 1 servings:
- 400 g almonds, peeled
- 50 g almond flakes
- 200 g marzipan paste
- 100 g powdered sugar
- 6 egg whites
- 1 pinch of salt
- 1 lemon(s), zest
- 1 tsp baking powder
- ½ bottle of rum flavoring
Instructions
Working time approx. 20 minutes; Rest time approx. 1 hour; Cooking/baking time approx. 25 minutes; Total time approx. 1 hour 45 minutes
without flour
Add a pinch of salt to the egg whites and whisk until stiff peaks form. Finely grind the peeled almonds in a food processor or mill and add to the marzipan mixture, which has been cut into small pieces. Add the powdered sugar, beaten egg whites, lemon zest, baking powder, and rum flavoring. Mix the ingredients well with a hand mixer. Ensure the marzipan mixture is completely dissolved. Place this mixture in the refrigerator for about an hour. Preheat the oven to 120°C (fan). Shape the mixture into 36 cookies by hand and place them on a baking sheet lined with baking paper. Decorate the cookies with the sliced almonds. Bake for 25 minutes, then let the cookies dry for another 10 minutes with the oven off. The cookies should still give slightly when pressed, and the almonds should be only lightly browned.
