Ingredients
  • 150 gr of flour 00
  • 150 gr of peeled almonds
  • 150 gr of caster sugar
  • 150 gr of cold butter
  • dark chocolate j.e.

Prep Time: 30 min
Cook Time: 15-17 min
Rest Time: 3h
Servings: 8 / 40 pieces

Preparation

Arrange the almonds on a baking sheet and leave to toast in a preheated oven at 180 degrees until lightly browned. They will not have to brown too much or they will be bitter. Let them cool and transfer them, together with half the granulated sugar, into a mixer's jug. Chop them at the highest speed proceeding several times, to prevent the almonds from releasing an excessive amount of their oil. You will need to obtain a fine and homogeneous flour.

Collect the mixture inside the planetary bowl with the flour, the diced butter and the remaining sugar. Assemble the hook K and work the mixture at a low speed until a homogeneous paste is obtained.

Give it the shape of a loaf, wrap it in the food film and place in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours. After this time remove the dough from the refrigerator and, with your hands, form balls about 1 cm. Arrange them by hand on several baking sheets lined with parchment paper, spacing them appropriately. Let it cool in the freezer for at least 1 hour. After this time cook the biscuits in the preheated oven at 140 ° for 15-17 minutes.

Remove from the oven and let them cool, leaving them inside the pans. Meanwhile, melt the chocolate in the way you like (in a bain-marie or in the microwave) and, using a teaspoon, take a small amount necessary to couple the biscuits. Let the chocolate solidify and the lady's kisses are ready to serve.
