Ingredients
For the 30 cookies or 15 sandwich cookies
- ⅓ cup cream
- 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
- ⅓ cup slivered almonds (or chopped hazelnuts)
- 0.24 lb candied orange peel
- ¼ cup flour
For the chocolate ganache
- 4 oz semi-sweet chocolate
- 1 tablespoon cream
Method
- Preheat oven to 350 F.
- Stir together the cream and sugar. Stir in the nuts, orange peel, and the flour.
- On a cookie sheet lined with baking parchment or a Silpat, drop the batter onto it by the teaspoonful, spacing well apart as the batter spreads.
- Bake for 10-15 minutes, though watching carefully as these cookies burn easily! Let cool on the cookie sheet for about 10 minutes, then move to a cooking rack to cool completely.
- When cooled, spread one cookie with chocolate, and sandwich with another cookie.
To make ganache,
- melt together chocolate and cream over low heat in a double boiler. When both are thoroughly incorporated, let cool before spreading over cookies.
- The chocolate ganache is optional. These cookies stand well on their own, unadorned.
