Ingredients
-
125 g unsalted butter
75 g icing sugar (sifted)
1 egg yolk
225 g plain flour (sifted)
150 g ground almonds
1 teaspoon almond essence
450 g dark chocolate
Preparation
-
Preheat oven to 170\u00b0C.
Using an electric whisk, cream butter and sugar till light ad fluffy.
Beat egg yolk and almond essence into batter till light pale yellow.
Add in sifted plain flour, fold well into a dough. (if too wet, may add in a bit more flour).
Pinch marble-size dough and roll into balls. Line balls of dough onto baking sheet on baking tray.
Bake 170\u00b0C for 20mins-25mins. Place baked cookies on tray to cool.
While cooling the cookies, line paper cups & melt dark chocolate in microwave. Divide each sessions to 20secs so that you won't burn the chocolate. I did an approx 2-3 sessions to melt the dark chocolates.
Using a teaspoon, drizzle some chocolate into base of each paper cases. Next, place each paper cases with a cookie.
Cover the cookies with more chocolate and sprinkle ground almonds on top.
Let chocolate sit to harden or you may chill in refrigerator for 5mins.
