Down Syndrome Breakdown

New Year Cake Washers Sologne


This recipe I got it in an old book from the Ecole Lenotre, the famous French cooking school, a book which I have already spoken on other occasions, full of interesting recipes, and in some cases somewhat complicated.

It seems that this is a typical trick of the French region called Sologne (authentic natural paradise and region of origin of the Tatin sisters and their famous upside down apple cake ...), data on which, however, not knowing the name of the specialty in French, I could not find confirmation anywhere.

The pastries are pretty good that you will get ... in fact I was expecting something much better because I think the nut, although it is predominant in the dough, as a whole is not much valued.

But since it's not even a recipe just to throw (and I also need a place to salutarvi ed augurarvi una buona fine per quest'anno ed un miglior principio per il prossimo!), la pubblico ugualmente! ;-DDD

Io ho fatto mezza dose e buona parte dei biscottini ottenuti รจ andata "persa" nel cercare la cottura ottimale, ovvero quella per ottenere dei biscottini croccanti ma non bruciati...
