Ingredients:

  • 2 cups mung bean flour
  • 2/3 cup shortening
  • 2 tbsp water
  • 1 small paper, cup (base of the paper cup should be a 2 inch diameter)

Directions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F.
  2. Use a sharp knife or a pair of scissors to cut the top portion of the paper cup off, leaving only a 1/2 deep cookie mould. Discard the paper scraps.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, mix together the flour, sugar, and ground almonds. Using your hands, mix in the shortening until the dough looks like sand.
  4. Add the water and almond extract and continue mixing with your hands until thoroughly mixed.
  5. Place about 5 chopped almond pieces into the paper cup mold. Over the mixing bowl, press a handful of the dough into mold and use your fingers to pack the dough into the mold and then level it off.
  6. Place the mold upside-down on an ungreased cookie sheet and slowly remove the mold. Repeat this process with the remaining dough.
  7. Bake the cookies for 25 mins and then let them cool for 30 minutes before eating.
