Preheat the oven to 170°C (340°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
⚙ Preheating the OvenOven
💡Put things in the oven only once it's reached temperature, after the heating light has gone off: an oven that hasn't reached temperature changes baking times, and the bake burns outside or stays underbaked.
2
Mix the flour, nuts, sugar and cinnamon.
3
Add the egg and rose water and mix into a soft dough.
4
Roll tablespoons of dough into balls the size of a small walnut and place on the baking sheet, spaced apart.
Baking pan
💡Roll with damp hands: the soft dough won't stick, and the balls come out smooth.
5
Flatten the balls lightly on the baking sheet.
6
Press walnut half onto each cookie.
7
Bake 15–18 minutes, until the cookies are golden at the edges.
⚙ BakingOvenBaking pan
💡Cookies that look too soft coming out of the oven firm up as they cool. Take them out when just the edges are golden.
💡Check by the cue (until…), not just the clock: every oven bakes a little differently.
8
Let cool completely and sift the powdered sugar over the top.
