Instructions

Heat oven to 325°F (163°C) and line two trays.
Beat butter and first 70 g powdered sugar until smooth. Stir in flavorings and any permitted additions.
Blend in flour, almonds and salt to create a soft dough. Scoop and roll into 30 small balls.
Bake 15–19 minutes until bottoms are just golden; cookies should remain pale on top.
Cool 5 minutes, toss warm cookies in half the 110 g coating sugar; cool fully then coat with the remaining sugar.
Store in a tin only when cold so the coating stays powdery.

Tips

Measure flour by weight; extra flour makes dense, dry cookies.
Chilled dough and parchment promote even geometry and prevent sticking.
