Amsterdam is a very beautifull city! And all the sweets as gevulde-koeken, stroopwafels, speculaas, waffles are amazing. I also loved the cheese and my children became big fans of the fruit hail and chocolate hail. I had to bring with me a few gouda cheeses and a package of each flavour of hail :) Thank you so much for this recipe, I was just finishing one that I brought from the Albert Heijn, they're amazing! Your blog is so so good.<br />Thanks a lot.Sofia Almeidahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07666164319634469882noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7144846758981844946.post-83847664154878216432018-03-08T17:37:34.747-07:002018-03-08T17:37:34.747-07:00Wow, I'm from Greenville Michigan too.

It shouldn't be like the kind of marzipan style used here, it becomes a little bit crumbly inside with the almond spice mixed with a little bit of lemon rasp and egg.

We have a rich Dutch history in our church, & we will be celebrating it's heritage & the Reformation, all on one day! I've decided to make these! <br /><br />I absolutely LOVE your site! I am mostly German (3/4, with 1/4 Irish & a 1/4 Mexican, so my kids get a lot of cultural diversity in their food!) & my husband is German, Norwegian & a little bit of Danish (or Dutch....I can't remember!), so we absolutely CRAVE authentic, traditional recipes from "the homeland"! <br /><br />It's also great that you & I both live in the same state! I'm up here near Grangeville in central Idaho! If you're ever in our part of the state, I welcome you to stop by & enjoy some amandelbroodjes met koffie! Een fihne dag verder!

And although I definitely feel french,I do enjoy dutch cooking! That's why I really apreciate what you're writing! So thank you for that.<br /> Anyway, when I try to make something you've posted I struggle a bit with the amounts you give. For example: a stick of butter in the gevulde koeken recipe. Could you give me the equivalent in gr please? Alvast bedankt voor je antwoord!

I am planning to use straight amandel spijs for the filling (Do you think this will work?), but I am not sure about the recipe for a crust. Should I use this gevulde koek dough, or do you have a better idea.

The cookies turned out too soft for what I'm looking for. Next time I'll try just the water to egg swtich and reduced cooking time to see if that is more like what I remember. I'll wait a little bit to try this, as Christmas baking and the great cookie experiment are taking their toll on my waistline.Kathynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7144846758981844946.post-35511952436713976592011-12-21T20:25:00.581-07:002011-12-21T20:25:00.581-07:00Kathy, I baked for 22 minutes at 350F and instead ...Kathy, I baked for 22 minutes at 350F and instead of adding cold water to the dough I mixed in an egg. The cookie is more tender but tastes just as good. I'm baking another batch tomorrow to make sure I get the same results but so far I'm happy.

I was thinking of substituting some of the regular flour with almond flour. My package of almond flour says it bakes up with a moist texture and rich, buttery flavor.

As for the crunch on the cookies, you may want to bake them for a shorter time. The recipe states 30 minutes, but I've found that usually 18-20 is plenty, but it depends a little bit on your altitude. I'm baking another batch tonight and I'm trying a slightly different formula, will keep you posted on whether it creates less crunch. <br />Yumm, Rondos are so good! They're on the "to bake" list so will post sometime next year.
