These traditional Russian cookies feature a soft cookie shell and an irresistible dulce de leche filling, all packaged in a beautiful walnut shape to make your holidays a bit more special!

Simple Walnut Cookies with Dulce de leche Oreshki

I am so excited I get to share one of my absolute favorite recipes with you today. This recipe is one that I have loved since I was a little girl. Sometimes, we outgrow the things we once loved in our childhood – but that’s not the case here. I am just as obsessed with this recipe now as I was decades ago.

I am talking about Oreshki.

What Are Oreshki?

Oreshki are favorite traditional cookies that are liked by young and old alike. They’re usually seen around the holidays and make any gathering just a little bit sweeter. Oreshki consists of two different components – the cookie part and the filling part.

The cookie is very similar to a shortbread cookie recipe. It’s made from eggs, butter, sugar, flour, baking soda, corn starch, and lemon. The end result? A cookie that holds its form but is melt-in-your-mouth soft. The filling is dulce de leche. The combination of both is just out-of-this-world amazing, you guys!

I haven’t even told you the best part. The cookies are shaped like walnuts. They are absolutely adorable and stir up a lot of fun. If you’re looking for a new winter cookie to share with friends and family, this is the one!

Whether you’re a fan of shortbread, caramel, or both, this cookie will soon become a favorite.

I hope you try this and enjoy Oreshki just as much as I do!

What do I need to make this recipe?

  • eggs
  • sugar
  • butter
  • baking soda
  • flour
  • half a lemon
  • corn starch

Steps

Melt unsalted butter in the microwave or on the stove.

In a bowl, whisk together 3 eggs and 1 cup sugar.

Whisk in melted butter.

In a separate small dish, juice half a lemon and add ½ teaspoon baking soda. Let it foam then add into the bowl with eggs and sugar.

Add 1 cup flour and 1 cup corn starch to the bowl. Mix everything with a spoon until well combined. The dough should not be super runny.

Heat up the nut maker and once ready, place ¼ teaspoon of the dough and close the machine.

It will take about a minute for them to cook and be golden. Once finished, take each nut out and pace on a cutting board or counter for quick cooling. If there is too much dough around the walnuts, cut off the extra.

Place the cooled nut half into a bowl as you finish the rest of the batter.

Fill each nut with the cooked dulce de leche and bring two halfs together to make a whole.
