Amarettini Candy - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    150 g amarettinis (Italian almond cookie)
    75 ml Amaretto (almond liqueur)
    150 g milk chocolate
    For garnish
    25 g white chocolate or 25 g dark chocolate
Preparation
    Place the amarettini in a freezer bag and crush the cookies into very fine crumbs (using a glass bottle). Place the crumbs in a bowl and stir in the amaretto.
    Break the chocolate into pieces and melt those using a hot water bath. Add the cookie crumbs and mix well.
    Pur the mixture onto a baking sheet and form into a rectangle of about 20X10 cm. Refrigerate for 30 minute.
    Cut the hardened mass into small cubes (2X2.5cm).
    For garnish: Melt the chocolate using a hot water bath, fill it into a freezer bag, cut off a tiny edge and decorate the cubes with the chocolate. For a variation you could also use two different kinds of chocolate.
    Place in a box and store in a cool place (these will keep up to ten days).
