Christmas Frosting Almond Cookies
1.
The ingredients for the base of the biscuit are 100 grams of butter, 220 grams of low-gluten flour, 40 grams of almond flour, and 80 grams of condensed milk (about 40 biscuits can be made, and the ingredients can be halved without such a large amount)
2.
The ingredients for the icing part are 200 grams of powdered sugar, 2 egg whites, appropriate amount of lemon juice, appropriate amount of food coloring, and appropriate amount of chocolate of various colors.
3.
First melt the butter into a liquid.
4.
Sift the low-gluten flour into the butter.
5.
Sift in the almond flour.
6.
Add condensed milk, the Nestle condensed milk I use is sold in supermarkets!
7.
Use a silicone spatula to evenly mix the above ingredients together to form a dough for later use. If it is winter, it can be operated for a while. If the weather is warm, it should be stored in the refrigerator for more than half an hour before use.
8.
Spread a layer of plastic wrap on the chopping board and divide the dough into 3-4 portions. Cover the surface of the dough with a layer of plastic wrap, and then use a rolling pin to gently roll it into a dough with a thickness of about 5 mm. Because of the addition of almond flour, This dough is not as moist as other biscuit doughs, it will be a bit dry and easy to crack. Don't worry, you can roll it out a little bit slowly to make a dough sheet.
9.
Use a Christmas-shaped cookie mold to press the desired pattern on the dough.
10.
The pressed patterns are evenly placed in a baking tray lined with tin foil or oil paper.
11.
Because the bottom of this Christmas biscuit is not too small, in order to prevent blistering and unevenness during the baking process, use a toothpick or fork to make some small holes on the surface of the biscuit before baking. Be careful not to apply too much force, otherwise the biscuit will crack. .
12.
Put the baking tray on the middle layer of the oven, adjust the temperature to 155 degrees, and the time is 8-10 minutes. Each oven brand is different, and the thickness of the biscuits is different, so please control the temperature and time by yourself, and see that the surface of the biscuits is browned. .
13.
The baked biscuits must be allowed to cool before being stored in an airtight cookie jar, otherwise they will become soft. Let's proceed to the icing decoration part. Beat the egg whites with a whisk until they become thickly foamed and add the powdered sugar in two to three times.
14.
Use a whisk to mix well and set aside. If you find that the frosting is too thick, add a few drops of lemon juice to mix it up.
15.
Put the round mouth flower mouth into the flower piping bag, and then put an appropriate amount of white frosting and color the snowman biscuits until the bottom of the biscuit is covered with white icing. If there is no piping mouth or bag, put the icing directly Cut a small mouth into the fresh-keeping bag and squeeze the icing sugar.
16.
The biscuits coated with icing are put aside to dry, and other colors are added after the icing has solidified, otherwise the colors of the upper and lower layers will mix together and affect the decorative effect.

After the background color has been dried and dried, you can decorate it with chocolates of various colors. Put the chocolate blocks of various colors into the piping bag and melt it into a liquid with hot water to form a cone. Then use scissors to cut a small opening in the piping bag for use. The melted chocolate in winter will solidify quickly. In the coloring process, which color chocolate needs to be used is to use a hair dryer to soften the chocolate and squeeze it on the surface of the frosting for decoration.
