Kletskoppen Cookies
Kletskoppen are a delightfully crisp lace cookie, made with almonds.
Ingredients
- 75 g unsalted butter
- 250 g granulated sugar
- 125 g all-purpose flour
- 100 g almonds sliced or slivered
- 3/4 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 60 g water
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Mix butter and sugar with an electric mixer until combined. 75 g unsalted butter, 250 g granulated sugar
- Add in the flour, cinnamon, chopped almonds and water. Stir the mixture into a soft dough. 125 g all-purpose flour, 100 g almonds, 3/4 tsp ground cinnamon, 1/2 tsp salt, 60 g water
- Drop small balls of the dough, around 1/2 inch wide onto the baking sheet. These cookies will spread a lot, so leave around 5 inches space between them.
- Bake in a preheated oven until the cookies are thin and golden brown, taking care not to burn them. The edges will brown more than the middles. This can take around 12-15 minutes depending on your oven. The cookies need to baked through enough so they become crisp not chewy, but don't let them burn. If they're browning too fast, you might need to turn down the oven slightly.
- After baking, let them to cool on the baking tray for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. They will crisp up as they cool.
- Store in an airtight container to maintain their crispness. They taste even better as the days go on.
Notes
Measurements: Both grams and US cup sizes are provided. Use the toggle on the recipe card to switch between the two.
Extra round cookies: You can make them extra round by gently pushing them into shape with a round cookie cutter the second they come from the oven. Once they cool down they stiffen and you won't be able to shape them
