Dutch Kletskoppen Cookies
Do you prefer crunchy cookies, then these Dutch Kletskoppen Cookies are something you will like. A mixture of mainly butter, sugar, flour and almonds and less than 10 minutes baking; that's all it takes to make these cookies.
Ingredients
- 30 grams butter softened
- 100 grams light brown sugar (NOTE 1)
- 1.5 tablespoons milk (NOTE 2)
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 30 grams peeled almonds (NOTE 3)
- 50 grams all-purpose flour
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Use peeled almonds. I created a separate post how to do this. It is very simple and quick. (NOTE 4)
- Mix butter, sugar and milk in a bowl.
- Mix flour, cinnamon and salt in a separate bowl.
- Transfer peeled almonds to a food processor and process until small particles. Don't grind it to dust. You can also chop it if you don't have a grinder or food processor.
- Add flour mixture to butter mixture and add almonds next and mix until blended.
- Transfer dough into a piping bag and pipe small balls of dough onto the prepared baking dish. Place them far apart because they will flatten out completely. (NOTE 5)
- Bake the cookies 5-10 minutes.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking dish for a few minutes and when they become harder, transfer them to a rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Both light brown or dark brown sugar will work, obviously, the color of the cookies will differ.
- Use water or coffee instead of milk.
- You can also use peanuts if you prefer.
