Ground almonds and chocolate put a new spin on an old favorite. Ingredients:
2 cups almonds |
1 cup white sugar |
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1/8 teaspoon salt |
2 eggs |
1/2 teaspoon almond extract |
3/4 cup chopped semisweet chocolate |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line cookie sheets with parchment paper. 2. Finely grind the almonds, sugar, cinnamon and salt in a food processor. 3. Separate one of the eggs and add the white, the other egg, and almond extract and process until the mixture holds together. Transfer to a bowl and stir in the chocolate. 4. Moisten hands and roll mixture into 1-inch balls. Place on prepared cookie sheet. Flatten to 1/3-inch thick rounds. 5. Bake until tops puff and centers are still soft, about 12 minutes. Remove to a rack and cool completely. Replace parchment paper for next round of cookies. |
