Ingredients

 

Steps in the recipe

1. Prepare the dough

In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment (or in a regular bowl with a spatula if you don't have a mixer), cream the butter, brown sugar, lemon zest, poppy seeds, and fleur de sel until smooth.

2. Add the dry ingredients.

Add the egg, then the mixture of flour, almond powder, and baking soda. Mix just enough so that the dough comes together and forms a ball. Do not knead.

3. Add the candied fruit.

Gently fold in the lightly powdered candied lemon cubes.

4. Shape the cookies

Divide the dough into 8 balls weighing 66 g each. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and flatten them slightly.

5. Rest

Place the cookies in the refrigerator for 2 hours.

6. Cooking

Bake at 450°F for 8 minutes for a "rare" finish, with a very soft center.
