Steps

  1. Step 1

    Preheat the oven at 180 C / Gas 4. Line a baking tray with greaseproof paper.

  2. Step 2

    In a bowl, mix the cashews and icing sugar. Add the egg yolks and orange blossom water and mix to a smooth homogeneous paste.

  3. Step 3

    Take lumps of the cashew paste and shape into small balls. Roll the balls in icing sugar and transfer to the baking tray.

  4. Step 4

    Push an almond in the centre of each ghribia. Bake until the biscuits are lightly golden, about 20 minutes.
