Recipe's preparation

  1. Preheat oven to 160˚C. Line two baking trays with baking paper.

  2. If necessary, make icing sugar first and set aside. Add almonds and hazelnuts to TM bowl and mill into nut meal 10seconds/speed 9.

  3. Add icing sugar to nutmeal and combine 10 seconds/speed 5.

  4. Set the dial to Closed lid. Using the interval setting Dough mode, add enough egg white through the hole in the lid to make a firm paste that can be rolled by hand. Note: you may not need the full quantity of egg white.

  5. Roll the mixture into balls the size of large hazelnuts. Roll each ball in icing sugar to coat thickly and place on baking tray.

  6. Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until well puffed and cooked through. Allow to cool on tray and then transfer to wire rack.

    We made these as a Christmas present and all worked well. We only needed 1 egg white. My husband really enjoyed them. Thank you for the recipe.

    Gosh these a delicious biscuits and look good too. Although I cut down the sugar to 200g they were still too sweet. I will try with 130 g sugar next time. The extra icing sugar also adds to the sweetness. These were so easy I will be making them often.  Cooking 7

    Lovely thanks. Had difficulty rolling them as they just seemed to melt in my hands but just did little heaps off the end of the spoon then dumped them right into the icing sugar. Very tasty. Thanks again.

    Thank you so much for sharing the recipe.  It's absolutely delicious and so easy to make.  I had it in the oven, the remaining ingredients back in the pantry and my thermomix washed and away in under ten minutes.
