Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. In a mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.

  3. Add in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.

  4. Stir in the lemon zest, followed by the all-purpose flour and baking powder. Mix until a smooth dough forms.

  5. Gently fold in the chopped almonds until evenly distributed throughout the dough.

  6. Using a spoon or a cookie scoop, drop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each cookie for spreading.

  7. Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.

  8. Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

  9. Once the cookies have cooled, dust them with powdered sugar for an extra touch of sweetness.

  10. Serve these Italian Rococo Cookies with a hot cup of coffee or tea, or enjoy them on their own as a delightful snack.
