Almond Horn Cookie Recipe With Powdered Sugar
- Total Time: 35 minutes
- Yield: 24 servings 1x
- Diet: Vegetarian
Description
Chewy, delightful Almond Horn Cookies, simple to make with powdered sugar. Perfect for a family-friendly treat, they deliver big flavor with minimal fuss.
Ingredients
- 8 oz (226g) almond paste
- 1 cup (120g) powdered sugar, plus more for rolling
- 2 large egg whites
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- A few drops of almond extract (optional)
- Sliced almonds for decorating (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare Oven & Baking Sheets: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Combine Almond Paste & Sugar: In a large bowl, crumble the almond paste. Add 1 cup of powdered sugar and mix until well combined and crumbly.
- Form Dough: Stir in egg whites and vanilla extract. Mix until a stiff, pliable, slightly sticky dough forms (approx. 5-7 minutes). If too sticky, add a tiny bit more powdered sugar.
- Prepare for Rolling: Place remaining powdered sugar in a shallow dish for rolling.
- Shape Cookies: Scoop about 1 tablespoon of dough per cookie. Roll each piece into a 3-inch long rope, then gently bend into a crescent or “horn” shape. Roll each horn in powdered sugar, ensuring a good coating.
- Add Toppings & Arrange: Arrange cookies 1 inch apart on prepared baking sheets. If desired, press a few sliced almonds onto each cookie.
- Bake Cookies: Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until edges are lightly golden and the cookies are set but still soft. Watch closely to avoid overbaking.
- Cool & Serve: Let cool on baking sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy!
Notes
Quality Tips: Use high-quality almond paste for the best flavor. Fresh egg whites whip up best. Ensure your powdered sugar is finely milled for a smooth coating.
Dough Consistency: If the dough is too sticky during shaping, add a tiny bit more powdered sugar to achieve the perfect consistency.
