315 gr of all-purpose- flour
a pinch of salt
30 pieces of natural cashew nut

  3. When it turns golden dough, roll and shape your dough into a cylinder. Tip is to roll it on the baking sheet. It won't be sticky and easy to keep your kitchen bench. 
  4. Wrap the dough with the baking sheet and put it in the refrigerator for an hour.
  5. After an hour, preheat the oven at 185C.
  6. Unwrap the dough and slice it into a small bite. Then shape each small bit into a ball.
  7. Use the spoon to flat it and place on baking tray covered with baking sheet.
  8. Brush on top with egg and put each cashew nut on each dough and brush it again with egg.
  9. Bake for 15-20 minutes.
  10. After 5-minute-taking out from the oven, brush them with a vanilla extract water.
