If you are a fan of crispy, chocolate cookies, this is a recipe for you!

 

Originally, I call these cookies “Rustico  cookies” because of their simple, raff look and the amazing Mediterranean smell of fresh oranges, almonds, and dark chocolate. Not too much sweet, but enough to satisfy all your senses. As you can already guess, this is not ordinary choco chip cookies recipe. What is different, you will find out very soon.

Ingredients:

250ml whipping cream
1 egg
100g sugar
80g butter
400g Schar Mix B – Bread Mix flour
100g dark chocolate
50g almond
fresh orange peel

Method:

Put whipping cream, egg, butter, sugar, orange peel and flour in a bowl and stir everything well. Then add chopped chocolate and roasted almonds and knead into soft dough. Divide the dough into small pieces (I got 35 equal pieces) and form in a shape of cookies. Place them on a baking pan covered with a baking paper and bake 25 minutes on 230ºC.

Serve it with cold milk, or orange juice. They are a perfect snack for the beach, traveling or as a dessert after lunch. Enjoy!
