Crispy Walnut Shaped Cookies With Dulce De Leche Filling Oreshki Recipes

Steps:

• Beat butter and sugar with an electric mixer until fluffy. Mix in egg and vanilla extract. Add flour and salt and mix until just incorporated; overmixing will make the dough too stiff. Cover the dough with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 30 to 60 minutes, or up to overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Press about 1 teaspoonful of the chilled dough into the bottom and up the sides of each walnut-shaped mold. Place the molds on a baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until browned around the edges, 12 to 18 minutes. Cool for a few minutes. Lightly tap on the bottom of the mold to pop out the cookies. Let cool until easily handled.
• Spoon some dulce de leche onto the bottom of each cookie and sandwich the halves together.

Steps:

• 1. In a large bowl cream the powdered sugar and butter together, then add the 2 egg yolks, mix well.
• 2. Next slowly add the flour, baking powder and cinnamon, and stir together.
• 3. Shape dough into walnut sized balls using your hands.
• 4. Now, dip (one side, only) in the egg white and then into the walnut pieces. Do the same with the rest of the dough.
• 5. Place a layer of parchment paper on your cookie sheet and place the cookies on it.
• 6. Preheat the oven to 375 F and bake for 25 minutes or until the tops look a light pink color.
