Knead the flour, sugar, eggs, and clove powder into a dough. If it’s a bit too crumbly, add another egg. The dough should be firm but still malleable. Mix the potash with the milk and add it to the dough. Knead everything thoroughly. Let it rest for about half an hour. Use a spoon to scoop out a walnut-sized amount (about 25 g), roll them into balls, and press half an almond onto each ball. Moisten your hands slightly while rolling the balls. Line two baking trays with baking paper or foil, arrange the mops on them, and bake in a preheated oven at 225°C (top/bottom heat) for 15 minutes. Then let them cool on a wire rack. This dough yields about 60 mops.
