Directions
- Melt the butter over low heat, then add the brown sugar and flour.
- Add the chopped almonds, cinnamon, salt, and water. ≈ 3 min
- Preheat the oven to 180-200 °C and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
- Place small mounds of dough, spaced apart, as they will spread out considerably. ≈ 3 min
- Cook for 7 to 10 minutes, until they are nicely browned but not burnt. Their smooth, hole-filled surface is what gives them their name, “bald-headed craniums.”
- Let them cool completely before removing them, then eat them quickly or store them in an airtight container.
