Ingredients for Filling
Instructions
Step 1
In a mixing bowl, beat the egg with sugar until you achieve a thick foam. If desired, add a pinch of salt to enhance the flavor.
In another bowl, combine the sifted flour with baking soda and butter. Mix these ingredients into a uniform mass.
Then, gently incorporate the egg mixture into the butter-flour mixture until well combined.
Step 2
Preheat your cookie mold on medium heat.
While it heats up, divide the dough into small balls—approximately 7.5 grams (0.25 ounces) each—to facilitate quick filling.
Place the balls into the heated mold, press down with the lid, and cook on medium heat until a golden crust forms. Make sure to flip the mold as required, as they cook fairly quickly. Pay attention to your stove's settings.
Step 3
Your cookies are now baked! To fill them, take the cooled cookies and put a spoonful of the sweetened condensed milk inside each one.
For an extra crunch, add a nut (either a walnut or almond) into one half of the cookie before sealing it. Press the two halves together.
Repeat this process for all of your cookies.
Step 4
Your delightful cookies are ready to enjoy! They make for a perfect snack or dessert during any festive occasion.

Variations
If you're looking to cater to different diets, don't worry! You can easily prepare gluten-free and vegan versions of these nut candies! 🌱 Simply replace regular flour with gluten-free alternatives like almond flour, and swap the butter for coconut oil or a vegan butter substitute.

Faq
- How do I know when the nut candies are fully baked?
Watch for a golden brown color and a slight firmness when you press on them. They generally bake quickly, so keep an eye on them!
- Can I make the dough ahead of time?
Absolutely! You can prepare the dough and store it in the fridge for a day. Just let it come back to room temperature before rolling it out.
- What can I use instead of condensed milk?
You can experiment with alternatives like homemade cashew cream or even a super thick vegan yogurt for a dairy-free option.
- Can I change the type of nuts used?
Definitely! While walnuts are traditional, feel free to mix in almonds, hazelnuts, or even pecans for a unique twist!
- How do I prevent the candies from sticking to the mold?
A light grease with butter or non-stick spray should do the trick. You can also dust the molds with flour for an extra layer of protection!
- Can I freeze these nut candies?
Yes! They freeze well. Just ensure they are stored in an airtight container to keep them fresh and tasty.
