Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cup almond flour
- 3/4 cup powdered sugar
- 3 tbsp rosewater more if needed
- Food Coloring optional
- 2 tbsp granulated sugar
- 2 tbsp Slivered Pistachios
Instructions
- In a bowl mix the almond flour with powdered sugar.
- Add the rosewater, one tablespoon at a time and mix until the dough comes together. You can first mix using a spoon and then your hands. The dough is ready once it doesn't stick to your hands and is pliable.
- If you'd like to use food coloring, divide the dough into 2-3 pieces and dye each piece with your favorite color.
- To shape, grab about a teaspoon of the mixture and shape it into a cone. Roll the cone in granulated sugar and the stick the pistachio sliver into the fat end of the cone so it resembles a stem.
- Arrange all on a small platter.
