Almond Tea Cookies Recipe

In a large bowl, cream the butter until light and fluffy. Add the almond paste and beat until it's fully incorporated and the mixture is smooth.

Whisk the salt into the flour, then gradually add this to the butter mixture, mixing well after each addition until a cohesive dough forms. Chill the dough for at least 3 hours, or ideally overnight, until it's firm enough to handle. Before baking, preheat your oven to 325°F.

Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes until they're firm enough to handle but still warm. Carefully roll them in the powdered sugar and cinnamon mixture. These cookies are quite fragile, so take your time when moving them from the pan.

Transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely, then store in an airtight tin to keep them fresh.
