Directions
10 min.
1. Step
To bake original Florentine cookies, first preheat the oven to 180°C and line two baking trays with baking paper.
2. Step
Melt the butter, sugar and honey in a pan. Stir constantly to prevent the mixture from burning. We know from experience that the sugar caramelizes quickly and gets very hot, so be careful when handling it!
3. Step
Once the mixture has melted, add the chopped almonds, flour and grated lemon zest. Stir well until everything is well combined.
4. Step
Using a teaspoon, place small mounds of the dough on the baking paper. Make sure you leave enough space between the mounds, as they will spread during baking.
5. Step
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for about 10 minutes until they are golden brown. They can burn very quickly, so keep an eye on them!
6. Step
While the Florentine cookies are cooling, melt the chocolate in a bain-marie. Dip the underside of the cooled cookies into the melted chocolate and place on a wire rack until the chocolate has set.
