Rose Petal Almond Cookies – Beautiful and exotic cookies to serve with a cup of coffee or tea.
Rose Almond cookies are delicious and unique cookies using edible dried rose petals. They are delicately flavored with rose petals, rose water and cardamom powder. The scent of the rose petals will make the cookies exotic and flavorful.
I often use rose petals in Indian cooking to make lassi, gulkand and thandai, adding them in baked goods is my new favorite.
