Instructions

  1. Grate the chocolate on the large side of the box grater. If using a food processor, chop the chocolate finely, but don't let it turn into powder.3.5 oz milk chocolate / 100 g + 3.5 oz dark chocolate / 100 g
  2. Combine grated chocolate, eggs, ½ of the confectioners’ sugar, ground almonds, flour, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and water. The dough will be somewhat sticky. Form a dough disc and wrap it in cling film. Place the dough in the fridge until firm, at least two hours or longer.3 large eggs + 1¾ cups confectioners’ sugar/ 200 g + 2¼ cups ground almonds / 250 g + 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour / 180 g +1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract + 1 teaspoon cinnamon + 2 tablespoons water
  3. Preheat the oven to 300°F/ 150°C and line the baking sheets with parchment paper.
  4. Roll dough balls: Place the remaining confectioners’ sugar in a small bowl. Form balls about the size of a walnut and roll them in the sugar. Place them on a baking sheet. 1 cup confectioners’ sugar/ 120 g
  5. Bake them for about 15 minutes. Keep the dough you are not using refrigerated so that it remains firm. Once it is too warm, it will become stickier again.
  6. Second batch: Shortly before the first batch of cookies is baked, form the second batch and place the balls on another prepared baking sheet.
  7. Cool: Leave the cookies on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes, then transfer them to a cooling rack. When completely cooled, place them in an airtight container.
