Инструкции
- Soften the butter. Grate the almonds finely. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, grated nuts, and salt. In a mixing bowl, cream the sugar and butter till light and fluffy. Beat in the almond extract and rum till well blended.
- Scrape the sides of the bowl. On low speed, beat in the flour mix till incorporated. Scrape the dough into a bowl and chill it for at least 2 hrs or possibly overnight.
- Working with a small amount of the dough at a time, briefly knead it till it is malleable but still well chilled, and roll it on the floured cloth to a 1/8-inch thickness.
- Cut out the cookies, using a small metal spatula to transfer them to the cookie sheets, 1 inch apart. Re-roll the scraps, chilling the dough as necessary.
- For a decorative effect, if you like, use the pastry tube to cut out 1/2-inch holes in the center of half the cookies.
- These cookies with holes in the center will serve as the top portions of the sandwich cookies.
- Bake for 8 to 10 min in a 375 degree oven, or possibly till just beginning to become golden brown. Use a small, angled metal spatula or possibly pancake turner to transfer the cookies to wire racks to cold completely.
- Butter Rum Cream Filling:Soften the butter. In a mixing bowl, with the mixer at low speed, cream the butter and sugar till well mixed. Still at low speed, beat in the rum and heavy cream.
- To fill the cookies, use a small metal spatula to spread a rounded 1/2 measuring tsp. of the buttercream on the underside of 1 of the whole cookie bottoms.
- Place a second cookie (if you like, one with a hole in it), bottom side against the buttercream, and press the 2 cookies together.
