The recipe

Steps 5 steps

Mix the softened butter and the powdered sugar, then add the egg, almond flour and flour. Shape a ball, wrap it in plastic and chill it for 30 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 180 °C.
Pinch off bits of dough and roll them into finger-sized logs. Pinch them in two spots to make the knuckles.
Mark a few creases with a knife on each knuckle, and press an almond into the tip for the nail.
Bake for 12 to 15 minutes on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, until they barely turn golden.
