Critical Success Points

  • Refrigerate the dough for at least 3 hours to firm up
  • Do not over‑mix after adding egg whites to keep the texture light
  • Bake just until lightly colored; the cookies should remain soft inside

Safety Warnings

  • Handle the hot oven with oven mitts
  • Egg whites can cause allergic reactions in sensitive individuals
  • Orange blossom water is highly fragrant; use sparingly to avoid overwhelming the flavor
