List of Ingredients




Makes about 2 dozen Cookies

2/3 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup confectioner's sugar
1 egg yolk
1/2 tsp. almond extract
1 cup almonds, ground
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 oz. semi-sweet chocolate

Cream together the butter and the sugar in a mixing bowl with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Add the egg yolk, almond extract, ground almonds, and flour until a consistent cookie dough is formed.

Refrigerate the cookie dough until firm, at least 2 hours.

Preheat oven to 325F degrees and select several baking sheets for baking.

Break off small pieces of the cookie dough and roll into evenly shaped balls. Provide plenty of space between the dough on the baking sheets, because these cookies spread while baking. Form at least 40 balls of dough to produce 20 completed cookies.

Bake the cookies for about 20 minutes or until golden. Let the cookies cool completely on paper or wire racks. When cool, melt the chocolate in a small bowl placed in a saucepan half filled with water.

Spoon a small portion of the warm chocolate on the bottom of one cookie, and press the bottom of another cookie into the other side of the chocolate, forming a sandwich. Let the chocolate cool to set before serving.
