Ingredients

  • 1 cup blanched almond flour
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/2 tsp almond extract (plus more to taste)
  • 1/8 tsp food-grade rose water (plus more to taste)
  • 3 tbsp corn syrup

Instructions

  1. Combine almond flour and powdered sugar in the bowl of a food processor fitted with a blade attachment. Pulse a few times to mix. 
  2. Add almond extract, rose water, corn syrup, and 1 teaspoon water. Pulse another 20- 30 times, careful not to overmix, until mixture is evenly moistened and clumps together when squeezed.
  3. Transfer to a bowl and smoosh together into a ball. Knead a few times until dough is smooth and pliable (overworking will make it oily). Use right away or shape into a log, wrap in plastic wrap and chill.
