Step-by-Step Instructions for Honey and Almond Cigars
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine finely chopped blanched almonds, honey, ground cinnamon, and nutmeg. Mix until cohesive, then set aside.
  2. Lay out spring roll wrappers and prepare melted unsalted butter for sealing. Place almond filling at the lower corner of a wrapper.
  3. Fold the corner of the wrapper over the filling and roll tightly towards the opposite corner. Seal the edges with melted butter.
  4. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Arrange rolled cigars and brush tops with melted butter.
  5. Bake for 15-20 minutes until golden brown and crisp. The aroma will indicate they are ready.
  6. Allow the cigars to cool on a wire rack. Dust with powdered sugar if desired before serving.
