We have the tradition of the "Living Advent Calendar". Every evening in Advent, a private household or an institution invites you to a cozy Advent meeting. Beautiful lyrics are sung, sang Advent songs and offered something delicious to eat.

Two years ago, at such a meeting, I had these biscuits that I would like to introduce to you today. I was so excited that I asked the hostess for the recipe, and she immediately sent it to my cell phone.

ingredients

For about 60 biscuits:

  • 200 g marzipan raw material
  • 8 tablespoons Amaretto (if children eat: apple juice or another juice)
  • 250 g soft butter
  • 80 g of sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 460 g of flour
  • 1/2 pck of baking powder
  • 50 g of sliced ​​almonds
  • 200 g of dark couverture (I have taken 100 g of milk chocolate and dark chocolate)

preparation

  1. The marzipan is pulled into pieces and stirred smoothly together with the amaretto or juice.
  2. The butter is added in small pieces and stirred in with the sugar.
  3. Then stir in the eggs one by one. Mix flour and baking powder and mix well.
  4. Form small balls of approx. 15 g from the dough and place on the baking sheet lined with baking paper. Lightly press the balls and distribute some planed almonds on each.
  5. Bake at 160 ° for 10 to 15 minutes (convection).
  6. Coat the cooled biscuits with the melted chocolate.

I hope you find this recipe delicious!
