These delicate cookies are our family's favourite. They don't get too hard and have a pleasant crunchy and light texture. They also take no time at all to prepare!
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup chopped almonds shopping list
- 1/4 cup butter shopping list
- 1/3 cup all-purpose flour shopping list
- 1/2 cup sugar shopping list
- 2 tbsp. heavy cream shopping list
- 1/2 tsp. vanilla OR almond extract shopping list
- 3 oz semi-sweet chocolate chips shopping list
- 1 tbsp. shortening shopping list
How to make it
- Preheat the oven to 375F. Grease 2 baking sheets, or spray them with non-stick cooking spray.
- Boil the chopped almonds for 2 min. in just enough water to cover them. Drain and use a food processor to chop finely.
- Melt the butter in a saucepan over low heat. Remove from the heat and stir in the flour, sugar, heavy cream, vanilla extract and chopped almonds.
- Drop teaspoonfuls 2 1/2 inches apart on the prepared cookie sheets.
- Bake until golden rims form, about 5 min.
- Meanwhile, melt the chocolate chips with 1 tbsp. shortening in a microwave, about 1 min (use a microwave-safe bowl). Stir to make a smooth chocolate sauce.
- Drizzle the chocolate sauce over the lace cookies.
- Remove the cookies with a spatula onto a lg. plate and allow to cool until the chocolate sauce has hardened.
