Zubereitung von Kourambiedes A Greek Christmas Cookie

  1. Cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 1 cup granulated sugar in a stand mixer for 15 minutes, until light and fluffy.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, and a pinch of salt.
  3. Add 2 large egg yolks, 2 tablespoons brandy, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract to the creamed butter mixture. Gradually add the dry ingredients (from step 2) and 4 cups all-purpose flour, mixing until a soft dough forms. Do not overmix.
  4. Stir in 1 cup slivered almonds.
  5. Cover the dough with a clean kitchen towel and let it rest at room temperature for at least 1 hour.
  6. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  7. Roll small portions of dough (about 1 tablespoon each) into 1-inch balls between your palms.
  8. Place the cookies onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, leaving some space between each cookie. Gently flatten each ball slightly with your hand.
  9. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until lightly golden.
  10. As soon as you remove the kourambiedes from the oven, lightly brush them with rose water.
  11. While still warm, generously roll the cookies in powdered sugar. Let them cool completely.
  12. Once cooled, arrange the kourambiedes on a serving platter, sifting additional powdered sugar between layers for a snowy effect.
