Ingredients
1 cup cake flour
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/3 cup sugar
1/8 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons finely ground almonds or walnuts
1 tablespoon coarsely ground almonds or walnuts
1/2 cup vegetable oil
2 teaspoons orange flower water
or
1/2 teaspoon almond extract [optional]
1 tablespoon cocoa powder [optional]
Preheat the oven to 350F.
In a medium bowl, blend the dry ingredients.
Add oil to the dry ingredients and mix.
* If using the the cocoa and almond extract, mix them in a small bowl first, adding a little of the oil to make a paste. Then add the rest of the oil and stir. Add to the dry ingredients.
The dough will be thick. Use a tablespoon to measure out 18 or so portions. Roll them tightly into balls. Place them on an ungreased baking sheet, or one lined with baking parchment.
Bake 25-30 minutes. The bottoms should be lightly browned and not dark while the outsides will be a pale tan color.
