Cooking process

I really like shortbread cookies, such that it melts in your mouth – you just press it with your lips, and it breaks up into a hundred fragrant pieces, enveloping your creamy taste. This cookie is just that.

I think that this recipe became Armenian because of its nut stuffing and the way of forming cookies, and the recipe of the test has long been known to everyone.

It’s a little frosty to form the cookie by hand, but the taste is worth it.

Lubricate cookies with eggs is not necessary, it is done to get a more ruddy color of the finished product.

For the preparation of cookies “Cigarettes” with nuts in Armenian we will take the following products.
