300g walnuts
300g almonds
200g dried fruit (i used a blend of raisins and apricots)
2 eggs
1 tbsp sugar
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp vanilla sugar (1 small bag)
2 tbsp orange blossom water (or orange/lemon zest)
Icing sugar and more walnuts, to top
Melted chocolate (optional)
DIRECTIONS:
In a blender, or in a food processor, blend nuts, almonds and dried fruits together until mostly grounded. Transfer to a mixing bowl.
Add eggs, sugar, baking powder, vanilla sugar and orange blossom. Using your hand, mix all the ingredients together very well. Using a glove helps.
Cover the mixture and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 350 F. Line a full size baking sheet with parchment paper.
Form balls with the dough. Dip in icing sugar all around and place on baking sheet.
Carefully press down a walnut on each ball so the cookie has a small round shape. Don't worry if the sides break a little.
Bake for 15 minutes. Let cool completely.
Optional: drizzle melted chocolate on top.
