A favorite homemade treat during the holiday season, orašnice are traditional Balkan walnut cookies. Everyone has their own version, however the standard recipe for orašnice only uses three ingredients - egg whites, sugar, and walnuts.

Once all the ingredients have been mixed together, another helping of coarsely ground walnuts is sprinkled on top in order to provide a crunchy outer layer. The cookies are always shaped to look like a horse hoof and they are then baked in the oven.

It is recommended to serve the cookies with a cup of coffee or tea.

A great gift for loved ones.
