TOP SECRET RECIPES | BROWN AND HALEY ALMOND ROCA



Top Secret Recipes | Brown and Haley Almond Roca image

Founded in 1914 by Harry Brown and J.C. Haley in Tacoma, Washington, the Brown and Haley Candy Company is one of the oldest confectioners in the country. In 1923 the company hit the jackpot when Harry Brown and the former cook from what would eventually become the Mars candy company, created a chocolate-coated butter toffee candy, sprinkled with California almonds. They took the sweet to Tacoma's head librarian, and she named it Almond Roca—roca means "rock" in Spanish. In 1927 the two men decided to wrap the little candies in imported gold foil and pack them into the now-familiar pink cans to extend their shelf life threefold. In fact, because of the way the candy was packaged, it was carried by troops in World War II, the Korean War, the Vietnam War, and the Gulf War. The Brown and Haley candy company is still housed in the former shoe factory that it has occupied since 1919. Almond Roca is so popular today that it can be found in sixty-four countries and is a market leader in Hong Kong, Singapore, Korea, Taiwan, the Philippines, and Japan. The company sells more than 5 million pounds of Almond Roca each year and is the United States leading exporter of packaged confections.  Click here for more of my copycat recipes of famous candy.

CHINESE ALMOND COOKIES RECIPE | FOOD NETWORK KITCHEN ...



Chinese Almond Cookies Recipe | Food Network Kitchen ... image

Almond cookies like these are thought to resemble coins, making them particularly popular as a symbol of good fortune during the Chinese New Year. Traditional recipes are made with lard and flavored with almond extract. We used butter and almond flour in these to boost the nutty flavor and create a crumbly texture similar to pecan sandies. Enjoy them year-round, particularly with a cup of tea or coffee.

Total Time 1 hours 45 minutes

Cook Time 30 minutes

Yield 15 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup all-purpose flour (see Cook's Note)
1/3 cup almond flour (or almond meal)
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/4 teaspoon almond extract
2 large egg yolks, at room temperature
15 whole blanched almonds

Steps:

  • Sift the all-purpose flour, almond flour, baking soda and salt together into a large bowl. Whisk any bits of almond flour left in the sifter into the sifted flour mixture.
  • Combine the butter and sugar together in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Beat on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 4 minutes. Add the almond extract and 1 egg yolk and beat until the mixture is smooth and combined, about 2 minutes. Scrape down the sides and the bottom of the bowl with a rubber spatula. Reduce the speed to medium low, add the flour mixture and beat until no streaks of flour remain, about 2 minutes. 
  • Wrap the dough in plastic and refrigerate for 1 hour. 
  • When ready to bake, position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment. 
  • Whisk together the remaining egg yolk and 1 tablespoon of water in a small bowl. Set aside. 
  • Scoop the dough by tablespoons (you can use a 1/2-ounce ice cream scoop) and place 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet. Roll each scoop into a ball and return it to the baking sheet. Flatten each with your palm into a 2-inch round. Gently press an almond onto each and brush with the egg wash.  
  • Bake, rotating the baking sheet halfway through, until the cookies are golden brown on the edges, 16 to 18 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely, about 10 minutes. 
  • Store the cookies in a tightly sealed container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
