INGREDIENTS

  • Main Ingredients

    • 1 ½ cups finely ground walnuts
    • ¾ cup white sugar
    • 🥚 4 large egg yolks, divided
    • 1 tablespoon ground cardamom
    • 1 teaspoon baking soda
    • 1 tablespoon rose water
    • 1 teaspoon water

STEPS

1

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.

2

Mix ground walnuts, sugar, 3 egg yolks, cardamom, baking soda, and rose water in a bowl until well blended. Roll teaspoon-sized pieces of dough into balls and place on the baking sheets, spaced 2 inches apart.
