(Teules de Taronja)

These crisp cookies are shaped like the terra-cotta roof tiles, teules (tejas in Castilian Spanish), that top village houses—old and new—throughout Spain. Almonds are a common ingredient in Catalan cookies, but we took another cue from the Moors and added candied orange.

Cooks' note:

• Handle these cookies carefully, as they are fragile. Cookies keep in an airtight container 5 days.
