Pignoli Cookies

Hoosier Hill Farm Almond Paste is the premium filling you need for superior baked goods! Select blanched almonds are blended with sugar to form a rich, sweet, and nutty almond paste. It’s perfect for baking pastries, danishes, cookies, cakes, almond croissants, and so much more. Our bulk almond paste comes to you in a convenient resealable container that’s perfect for commercial bakeries and kitchens.

How to Use: Almond paste can be blended directly into cake batter or cookie dough or used as a filling in pastries and cakes. Its soft texture makes it easy to roll out into thin sheets or scoop and shape into small portions. To prevent sticking when rolling out almond paste, we recommend dusting your work surface and rolling pin with powdered sugar.

Storage: Store unopened almond paste in a cool, dry place. Once opened, we recommend refrigerating opened almond paste in an airtight container or wrapped tightly in plastic food wrap for up to three months. Bring paste to room temperature before using for the most workable texture.

Ingredients

Directions

Instructions

Step one: Beat room temperature egg whites until fluffy, then add in sugar and continue beating. Add in broken pieces of Hoosier Hill Farm Almond Paste and beat until smooth.

Step two: Line a cookie sheet or jelly roll pan with parchment paper (do not use non-stick spray). Drop 1 heaping tablespoon of dough on the parchment paper, leaving 1½” between cookies, and top generously with pine/pignoli nuts.

Step three: Bake at 325°F for 20 minutes on the bottom oven rack, then for an additional 3-5 minutes on the top oven rack. The cookies should be light in color and appear cracked.

Step four: Leave the cookies on the parchment paper until completely cool, then gently remove them as they are fragile.
