Recipe as follows:
You will need
5 C plain flour (adjust as needed)
500g butter
tin of condensed milk
1 1/4 C castor sugar
drops of vanilla or essence
a large handful of almonds
and
the zest grated from two oranges and the juice of half of one
and icing sugar to ice
Melt butter mix in condensed milk and sugar and vanilla sift in flour and chop the almonds up as fine or chunky as you want them. Adjust the amount of flour till you have a good cookie texture.
Use a spoon to evenly make little balls and them squish em onto a greased baking tray with a fork. You should get sixty or so.
Bake on 270 in a preheated oven for approximately 12minutes (fifteen seemed over cooked and ten under).
cool on a rack or on a tea towel if that's all you got handy.
Use a teaspoon to pour on a spoon of icing on each cookie.
when set give away! Because if you eat them all you will feel a sugar high then you will feel sick and then fat and lonely it is better to eat the dough in solitude than the cookie
