Cumin and walnut shortbread is a delightful twist on traditional shortbread cookies. The unique combination of earthy cumin and nutty walnuts creates a complex and delectable flavor profile, making these cookies a perfect treat for any occasion.
- Ensure the butter is at room temperature before you start, as this will make it easier to cream with the other ingredients.
- To enhance the flavor, you can toast the walnuts lightly in a pan before chopping and adding them to the dough.
- Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This helps to firm up the dough and prevents the cookies from spreading too much in the oven.
- Use parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to prevent the cookies from sticking to the baking sheet.
- Don’t overbake the cookies. Remove them from the oven when the edges are just starting to turn golden brown, as they will continue to firm up as they cool.
There you have it – a delicious and unique cumin and walnut shortbread. These cookies are perfect for serving with tea or coffee, or as a delightful snack on their own. With the right balance of spices and nuts, this shortbread is sure to impress your friends and family.
