Description

Delicious cookies that are perfect for the Christmas season – Candied Almonds & Chocolate Nougat Cookies. Easy to prepare and so good!


Ingredients

Scale

1/2 cup (120g) butter, at room temperature
1/4 cup (50g) brown sugar
1 pinch of salt
1 large egg
7 oz. (200g) spelt flour*
2 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. ground cinnamon
4.2 oz. (120g) roasted (candied) almonds, roughly chopped & divided
1.8 oz. (50g) chocolate nougat for baking*, in small cubes


Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Line a baking sheet with baking parchment and set aside. Roughly chop the almonds – use about 100g (3.5 oz.) for the dough and the rest for the decorations. Cut the firm chocolate nougat into small cubes. Set everything aside.

2. Add the butter, brown sugar, and salt to a large bowl and mix on high until very light and fluffy. Add the egg and mix until well combined. Mix flour, baking powder, and cinnamon. Add to the large bowl and mix until just combined. Next, add the chopped almonds and nougat and fold in. Use two spoons (or a cookie scoop) and place dough portions with some space in between on the prepared baking sheet. Flatten the dough portions slightly and press a few chopped almonds into the dough. Bake the cookies for about 11-12 minutes. Take out of the oven and let cool down for some time on the baking sheet, then transfer to a wire rack and let cool down completely. Repeat with remaining dough.
