👨🍳 Инструкции
- 1
Make the dough: In a mixer bowl, combine the flour, ground almonds, 3 Tbsp powdered sugar, and baking powder. Mix briefly. Add the soft butter and oil, and mix until the ingredients form coarse crumbs. Gradually add the orange juice, mixing until a smooth dough forms. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Prepare the filling: In a small saucepan, combine the date paste, 100g ground walnuts, cinnamon, and 1 Tbsp butter. Add a little boiling water, a tablespoon at a time, and stir until you achieve a thick, spreadable paste. Simmer for a few minutes until well combined. Let the filling cool completely.

Assemble the cookies: Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F). Line baking sheets with parchment paper. Divide the chilled dough into two equal portions. On a lightly floured surface, roll out one portion of dough into a rectangle approximately 1/4 inch thick. Spread half of the date filling evenly over the dough, leaving a small border. Carefully roll the dough up tightly, like a jelly roll, using the parchment paper to help. Score the top of the roll with a knife at about 1-inch intervals (do not cut all the way through).

Repeat with the second portion of dough and the remaining filling. Place the rolled logs onto the prepared baking sheets.

Bake: Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until lightly golden brown. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before carefully slicing them along the scored lines. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Finish and serve: Once cooled, dust the cookies with powdered sugar. Store in an airtight container.
