Step 1

Preheat oven to 356F or 180C.

Step 2

In a bowl, mix the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.

Step 3

Add the soft butter in pieces, lime zest, eggs, milk, and sambuca.

Step 4

Mix well to obtain crumbs and then knead on a working surface until the ingredients are combined and your dough is homogeneous (about 5-7 min kneading). If the dough is stuck to your hands- use a little bit of flour.

Step 5

Flour the working surface, flatten the dough, place 120 gr almonds and 120 gr pistachios on it and fold the dough over them. Knead the dough to incorporate the almonds and pistachios in.

Step 6

Cut the dough into 2 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a roll, flatten a little bit, and place it on a baking sheet.

Step 7

Bake 30 minutes. Take out and allow the rolls to cool down for 10-20 minutes.

Step 8

Cut the cookies with a sharp knife, about 1 cm thickness. Then bake them for another 20 minutes.

Step 9

Wow, it's time to eat some Cantuccini with your coffee.
