london almond cookies

Known as London Almond, these bite-sized dark chocolate almond cookies are exactly what sweet dreams are. With a rich glossy chocolate coating, the biscuit crumbles once bitten into to reveal the toasted almond inside. What's more, it's egg and dairy-free!

Chocolate Almond Cookies

almond nuts

g sugar (powdered)

salt

wheat flour

g corn starch

g custard powder

g baking soda

corn oil

chocolate

g cocoa butter

Lay raw almonds flat on a tray to bake for at least 30 mins at 120 degrees Celsius and let it cool to room temperature. Once cooled, blend 60 g of the baked almonds with icing sugar and salt until fine.

Pour blended almond mixture into a bowl to incorporate all-purpose flour, cornflour, custard powder, and baking soda. Mix well before adding 100g of oil to form a dough. Add more oil if the dough is still dry. You might not need to use the rest of the oil because almond may release its oil during blending.

Divide dough into smaller pieces. They should weigh about 10g each and this should yield about 50 pieces in total. Wrap each dough with a whole almond and create an elongated shape.

Bake the cookies at 170 degrees Celsius for 10 minutes. Then, rotate the tray and bake for another 7 minutes. Set aside to cool. Meanwhile, begin arranging paper cups moulds onto a tray.

To melt chocolate, bring a pot of water to a rolling boil and then reduce the heat to the lowest. Place the bowl of chocolate along with cocoa butter on top of the pot to melt  it using the double boil method.

Dip each cookie into the melted chocolate. Carefully place them on the arranged paper cup moulds with the flat surface facing down. Finally, top them with some chopped nuts for decoration purposes.

A whole roasted almond is wrapped in buttery and crunchy cookie dough, dipped in melted chocolate, and sprinkle with almonds. They are so good and easy to make! The recipe is eggless.

Easy Eggless Almond London Cookies

65 gr butter (unsalted, softened)

gr sugar

gr all-purpose flour

cornstarch

gr cornflakes

almonds

almond (almond nibs)

gr chocolate chips (semi-sweet or dark chocolate)

Soften the butter at room temperature, about 25-30 minutes before you start working on the recipe. The butter should be soft when you press on it but it shouldn&#039;t be wet or shiny

Preheat oven at 320 F (160 C). Mash the butter with sugar with a wooden spatula until they are combined, creamy, and pale in color. You can use a hand mixer to cream them too. Sift in all-purpose flour, cornstarch, and salt. Combine until you can form a soft dough. Add the cornflakes, as you mix the cornflakes into the dough, crush them into smaller pieces to evenly distribute them throughout the dough

Divide the dough into 40 equal pieces. Keep them covered and work with one at a time. Flatten the dough with your palm and grab one whole almond. Wrap the dough around the almond. Roll it smooth to shape like an oval. Place this in mini baking paper and put it on top of a baking sheet. This cookie doesn&#039;t expand much. Repeat with the rest of the dough and whole almonds

Prepare the cookie dough:

Place the baking sheet in the middle rack in the oven and bake for 20 minutes or until just lightly golden brown. It shouldn&#039;t color much

Baking:

Let the baked cookies cool down completely. When they have cooled down, melt the chocolate chips in the microwave for a few seconds until they are melted. You can also use a water bath by bringing water to a gentle boil in a sauce pan, then lower the heat to LOW. Put a heat-proof bowl, larger than the saucepan on top. Stir the chocolate chips until they are all melted evenly. Keep this warm at the lowest temperature

I think the easiest way for me to do this is to spoon some chocolate and pour it on top of the baked cookies. You can also dip the baked cookie in the melted chocolate and then put it back into the paper cup. Either way works

Decorate with some chopped almonds and shredded sweetened coconut flakes (optional). Put them in the fridge to let the chocolate set

Coat with melted chocolate and decorate:

Once the chocolate is set, you can keep the cookies in an air-tight container or cookie jar at room temperature. They can last for weeks. The chocolate will not melt once it&#039;s set unless they are being handled with hands too much
