Serving Size: 36

Cooking Time: 45 minutes

Ingredients

• 1.5 Cups finely ground walnuts, ground
• 0.75 Cups white sugar
• 4 Large egg yolks, divided
• 1 Tablespoon cardamom, ground
• 1 Teaspoon baking soda
• 1 Tablespoon rose water
• 1 Teaspoon water
• 0.5 Cups walnut pieces, divided

Steps

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
2. In a medium bowl, mix together the ground walnuts, sugar, 3 egg yolks, cardamom, baking soda, and rose water until well blended.
3. Roll teaspoon-sized pieces of dough into balls and place them 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
4. Whisk together the remaining egg yolk and water using a fork. Press a walnut piece into each cookie, then brush with the egg yolk glaze.
5. Bake in the preheated oven until golden, about 20 minutes. The cookies will appear soft and undercooked but will harden considerably when cooled.
6. Remove from the oven and allow to cool on the baking sheets for at least 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Enjoy these delightful cookies with a cup of tea or as a sweet treat any time of the day!
