Walnut Cookies Aka Oreshki/Gorishki
Oreshki are at the center of some of my favorite childhood memories. They are crumbly and buttery, with a rich creamy filling. Trust me, there is nothing better.

Ingredients
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter room temperature
- 1/2 cup margarine room temperature
- 3 1/2 cup all purpose flour
- 1 cup sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 28 oz dulce de Leche
Instructions
- In a bowl, mix together the flour and sugar.
- Add in butter and margarine. Use a handheld mixer to combine the ingredients until you have a smooth, even consistency.
- Make a little hole in the middle of the flour mixture. Then, add the eggs, mayo and baking powder into it.
- Use your handheld mixer to beat the ingredients together completely. Your dough should be soft and a little sticky.
- Place small pieces of dough inside each metal form of an oreshki mold. When using a stove top, cook until golden brown. Flip the pan over and cook the other side. FYI: Each side can take 1½ to 3 minutes depending on the thickness of your mold. Make sure to check the instructions on the box!
- Let the cookies cool. Then, break off the access dough that seeped out of the molds and cooked to the inside of the pan.
- Fill each mold with dulce de leche. Then, place another mold on top to make an walnut shape.
