Instructions

Step 1

Prepare the Dough

Begin by combining softened unsalted butter and powdered sugar in a mixing bowl. Beat the mixture for about 2 to 3 minutes until it becomes light and fluffy.

Once the mixture is pale in color, add in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Ensure the mixture is uniform before adding other ingredients.

Next, sift in the flour, baking powder, and a pinch of salt. Mix until you form a soft and smooth dough.

Divide the dough into small balls, roughly weighing 6 to 7 grams (0.21 to 0.25 ounces) each.

Preheat your oven and bake the tops of your nuts for 2 minutes to give them a slight crust.

Step 2

Prepare the Filling

While the dough tops are baking, prepare your filling. Take the boiled sweetened condensed milk and stir in chopped walnuts until well combined.

Once the nuts have cooled, remove them from the oven. Allow them to cool slightly before proceeding.

Step 3

Assemble and Serve

Once the baked tops have cooled, gently fill each nut with the sweetened condensed milk and walnut filling. Ensure each piece is generously filled.

Arrange your completed nuts on a platter and serve them alongside tea or coffee for a delightful treat.

Enjoy your creation with love and share with family and friends!

Variations

Looking to cater to different dietary preferences? No problem! 🌱 Here are some gluten-free and vegan variations for your Oreshki.

For gluten-free cookies, try replacing regular flour with a cup-for-cup gluten-free flour blend. This will help maintain that perfect texture while being kind to those who are gluten intolerant.

If you’re going vegan, substitute the eggs with flaxseed meal mixed with water (1 tablespoon of flaxseed meal + 2.5 tablespoons of water = 1 egg). Instead of butter, opt for coconut oil or a vegan butter substitute. Enjoy the same delightful taste without animal products! 🎉

Faq

  • What type of flour should I use?

    All-purpose flour works best for this recipe. Make sure it’s fresh for optimal results!

  • How do I know when my cookies are done baking?

    Watch for a light golden color and a slightly firm texture; they may still feel soft in the center but will firm up as they cool.

  • Can I freeze these cookies?

    Yes! You can freeze unbaked dough and bake them fresh as needed. Just make sure they are fully cooled before freezing.

  • What can I use instead of walnuts in the filling?

    You could try any nut that you love like pecans or even a sprinkle of chocolate chips for a sweet twist!

  • How do I store leftover cookies?

    Keep them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week, or in the fridge for longer freshness.

  • How can I make the filling extra creamy?

    Consider heating the condensed milk slightly before mixing in nuts. This allows for a smoother and more luscious filling!
