Description

These delicate Chocolate Dipped Almond Horn Cookies blend the rich flavor of almond paste with a crunchy almond coating, finished with a luscious dark chocolate dip for an irresistible treat.

Ingredients

Units Scale

Cookies

  • 7 ounces almond paste (torn into 1″ chunks; see note 1)
  • 1/2 cup finely ground almond flour (do not sub with almond meal)
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg white
  • pinch salt
  • 1 cup raw sliced almonds (leave whole or coarsely chop)

Chocolate Dip

  • 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips (see note 2 )
  • 1 teaspoon coconut oil (sub with butter )

Instructions

  1. Preheat: The oven to 375 degrees. Line a rimmed baking sheet with a silicone baking mat or parchment paper.
  2. Beat: In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, add the almond paste, almond flour, granulated sugar, egg white and pinch of salt. Beat on low just until the mixture comes together a bit, then beat on medium low until well combined.
  3. Form: Place the sliced almonds in a bowl. Using a 1 1/2″ cookie scoop, form the dough into balls (about 1 1/2 tablespoons per cookie) and place into the bowl with the sliced almonds. The dough is sticky, so roll in the sliced almonds until the dough is coated with almonds so it will keep the dough from sticking to your hands.
  4. Roll: The dough into a log between your hands until it’s about 4″ long. If necessary, roll the dough in the sliced almonds once again to coat and place on the prepared baking sheet and shape into a crescent. Repeat with the remaining dough, placing cookies 1-2″ apart.
  5. Bake: for 12-14 minutes, rotating the pan halfway through baking time, until golden brown. Remove from heat and cool completely on a wire rack.
  6. Melt: Place the chocolate chips or baking wafers and oil in a microwave safe bowl. Heat for 20-30 second increments, stirring well each time until the chocolate is completely melted.
  7. Dip: the ends of each cookie in the chocolate and place on the silicone or parchment lined baking sheet until the chocolate has set. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Note 1: Use almond paste torn into 1″ chunks for best texture.
  • Note 2: You can substitute dark chocolate chips with baking wafers if preferred.
  • You may substitute coconut oil with butter for the chocolate dip.
