  1. In a deep bowl, place the melted and cooled butter, then add the powdered sugar on top. Mix the sugar and butter until the sugar dissolves completely.
  2. Add the flour gradually and continue beating.
  3. Grind the fresh cardamom seeds, or use ground cardamom if that is what you have, but fresh cardamom will give a stronger result and flavor. You can use one teaspoon or more, حسب الرغبة.
  4. Add the cardamom and the coarsely chopped walnuts over the flour and butter mixture...
  5. Mix the ingredients until you get a soft but cohesive dough. Place it in the fridge for about half an hour.
  6. After the required time, remove the cardamom cookie dough from the fridge, not the freezer, and shape it into a log.
  7. Cut the log with a knife into circles.
  8. Arrange the cardamom cookie rounds on a baking tray greased with butter or lined with baking paper.
  9. Place the cookie tray in a preheated oven at 170 degrees for 15 minutes, or until lightly golden.
    Timers: 15 min
  10. Remove the cardamom cookies from the oven and set aside until completely cool before serving with a cup of tea or coffee!
