Step by step recipe

Stage 1 - 1 min.

Put 30 g cashew nuts into a blender goblet.

Stage 2 - 1 min.

Blend to a fairly fine powder.

Stage 3 - 4 min.

Tip this into a mixer bowl and add 45 g flour, 45 g butter, ¹⁄₃ egg, the grated 30 g Parmesan (Parmigiano Reggiano) and 0 teaspoon salt.

Stage 4 - 4 min.

Knead together until the dough is evenly mixed.

Stage 5 - 3 min.

Transfer the dough onto a sheet of baking paper and shape into a flattened square or rectangle.

Stage 6 - 1 hour

Lay a second sheet of baking paper on top and roll out with a rolling pin. Try to keep the rectangular shape as far as possible to minimise offcuts (stage 8).

Refrigerate for at least 1 hour.

Stage 7 - 2 min.

Preheat the oven to 360°F (180°C)

If necessary, finish rolling out the dough (still with the paper on), then remove the top paper.

Stage 8 - 7 min.

Cut out small biscuits with a cutter in your preferred shape. Here they are simple rectangles.

Stage 9

Transfer the biscuits as you cut them onto the baking sheet you lined with paper in stage 7.

Stage 10 - 2 min.

If possible, glaze the tops, using a brush.

Stage 11 - 1 min.

Also, if you can, scatter a little extra grated Parmesan over the biscuits.

Stage 12 - 30 min.

Bake for 30 minutes.

Stage 13

Leave to cool on a wire rack.

Remarks

If you can, toast the cashew nuts before blending them in stage 1; your biscuits will taste much better.

Keeping: A few days in an air-tight jar or tin.

The 1 comment already posted on this recipe

I made these and was very excited, BUT. I found that they were incredibly fatty and think it probably needs maximum 80g butter. Also, grinding up the cashews finely means you don't really get Alimuch of the flavour of them - even though I roasted them first. Next time I would reduce the butter and grind the cashews much less.
