Time 1h

Yield 30

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 teaspoon shortening, or as needed
½ cup whipping cream
3 tablespoons white sugar
¼ pound chopped candied orange peel
½ cup all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
⅓ cup slivered almonds
4 ounces semisweet chocolate, melted

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease baking sheets with shortening and dust with flour.
  • Stir cream and sugar together in a bowl. Stir in orange peel, flour, and almonds until combined. Drop batter in teaspoonfuls onto the prepared baking sheets, keeping each cookie well apart from each other.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven and let cool completely on a wire rack, about 30 minutes.
  • Spread bottoms of cooled cookies with melted chocolate using a spatula, or spear cookies on a fork and dip bottoms into chocolate. Let dry, bottoms-up, on waxed paper.

I'm not a huge fan of coconut, but I really enjoyed these florentines. The coconut flavor was subtle and the cookies were perfectly chewy.

I had a little trouble getting the florentines to set properly, but I think that was because I didn't let them cool completely before dipping them in chocolate. Other than that, they were perfect!
