Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with a silicone liner (such as Silpat®).
- Place almonds into the bowl of a food processor; alternate pulsing and running at full speed every few seconds until finely chopped and crumblike. Be careful not to go too far; you don't want them too fine and pasty.
- Combine butter, brown sugar, and honey in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir a few times and cook until melted and dissolved. Bring to a boil, then carefully remove from the heat.
- Add vanilla extract, salt, and flour, and whisk until smooth. Add chopped almonds and mix with a spatula until everything is combined.
- Drop eight uniformly sized, rounded spoonfuls of batter (each about 2 teaspoons, or 15 grams) onto the prepared sheet. Fine-tune the cookie shapes and make sure they are evenly spaced.
- Place in the center of the preheated oven and bake until golden brown and a bit darker around the outsides, 10 to 12 minutes, rotating the pan halfway through.
- Remove from the oven and slide the silicone liner off the baking sheet and directly onto the countertop. Allow to sit until cool and crisp, 3 to 5 minutes, then gently peel cookies off the liner. Repeat to bake remaining batches.
- Spread melted chocolate over the flat side of one cookie. Place a second cookie, flat-side down, on top to make a sandwich and press very gently to seal. Repeat to form remaining cookies. Let sit until chocolate has firmed up, about 30 minutes.

COFFEE-CHOCOLATE MACADAMIA COOKIES
We cook all the time here at the firehouse, and cookies for the annual cookie swap are no exception. We love the strong tastes in this cookie and often have them on hand for the guys to snack on. The better espresso powder you get, the better these cookies taste, and you could always add more if you wanted a stronger coffee flavor.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line baking sheets with Silpat (silicon mats) (minimum of 2) or parchment paper
- In a small saucepan over medium-low heat, melt the butter and chocolate, scrape vanilla bean in so it will infuse, cook stirring with rubber spatula frequently for about 5 minutes.
- Pour butter mixture into small bowl and let cool slightly.
- In a large bowl, combine chopped nuts, sugar, egg, and salt until blended. Fold in butter, chocolate, vanilla mixture and combine all until well blended.
- Drop the batter by tablespoons about 3" apart. Bake 6 -8 minutes. You know they're done when the cookies are bubbling and completely flat.
- Let cool on the Silpat or parchment paper. If you need the cookie sheet to complete the cookies, let cool on Silpat or parchment paper for about 5-10 minutes, then VERY CAREFULLY transfer them to a wire rack, preferably with a hard flat spatula or large scraper. Store at room temperature or freeze in an airtight container, separating the cookie layers with waxed paper.
Tips:
- Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor. A semisweet or bittersweet chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 60% is ideal.
- Toast the macadamia nuts to enhance their flavor. To do this, spread the nuts on a baking sheet and bake them at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Be careful not to overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the cookies tough.
- Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cookies to hold their shape.
- Bake the cookies until they are just set. Overbaking will make them dry and crumbly.
- Let the cookies cool completely before serving. This will give them time to firm up.
Conclusion:
Chocolate macadamia lace cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat. They are perfect for any occasion, from a casual get-together to a special holiday party. With their delicate lace-like texture and rich chocolate flavor, these cookies are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
