Ingredients

Servings
  • 1/2 cup almond toasted, blanched whole
  • 1/2 cup rye flour light
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt coarse
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 tick butter softened, unsalted
  • 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar plus more for dusting
  • 1 egg large, yolk
  • 1/4 teaspoon almond extract

Instructions

  1. In a food processor, pulse the almonds and flours until the nuts are finely ground. Add salt and cinnamon, then pulse to combine.
  2. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat together the butter and sugar on medium speed until smooth and fluffy. Add the egg yolk and almond extract; beat until combined. Reduce the speed to low and gradually beat in the flour mixture until just combined.
  3. Preheat the oven to 350°F (176°C). Roll tablespoon-sized portions of dough into 1/4-inch (5 mm) thick ropes, each about 7 inches (17 cm) long. Transfer to parchment-lined baking sheets and shape into hearts. Refrigerate until firm, about 10 minutes.
  4. Bake, rotating the sheets halfway through, until the cookies are golden brown and crisp, about 17 minutes. Let cool completely on the baking sheets on wire racks. Dust with confectioners' sugar just before serving.
