Traditional holiday cookie in my house
You will love it so much that it will become one of your holiday favorites.
Walnut cookies (Oreshki)
2 eggs
3 cups flour
1/2 cup sugar
1 cup butter
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
Beat whites till foamy set aside till needed.
Beat yolks and sugar until very lite and fluffy, add rest of ingredients and whites, mix very well. Form dough chill until ready to form into nut cookie shells
You will need a nut cookie electric maker to make these.
Filling
One can of sweetened condensed milk
One soup pot
2 cups of finely chopped walnuts
Place closed can into pot cover with water completely
Cook on medium heat atleast two hours.
If water evaporates add more. If you want the caramel to be darker cook three hours.
Let the can cool completely in the pot before opening the can. You can add cold water or ice to help speed up the process.
Mix contents of the can with the walnuts, now fill your cookie halves and stick them together.
We make extra because we eat them while we fill them
