Today’s second Tuesday with Dorie recipe (because I am apparently a week ahead with Baking with Dorie) is Cocoa Almond Thumbprints.
These biscuits are compromised solely if ground almonds, coconut, sugar and eggwhite. They are meant to be filled with ganache, but I just baked in a chocolate chip instead.
These biscuits are rather messy and crumbly before baking, and you have to be a bit gentle at that stage to stop them from disintegrating. However, they bake up quite firmly, and are quite healthy with only fat from the coconut and almonds.
To see what everyone else made this week and what they thought if it, visit the LYL section of the TWD website.
You worked fast! These were SO great weren't they?
ReplyDeleteThey were good and easy to whip up.
DeleteThey look great, I have to admit that I am not a huge fan of filled thumbrpints.
ReplyDeleteHi Ulrike, I would probably prefer jam in them!
DeleteI like your chocolate chip idea. These were easy and delicious.
ReplyDeleteHi Diane, yes, easy and delicious are right up my alley.
DeleteLooks great! They were pretty crumbly but turned out great!
ReplyDeleteThanks Karen. I agree - shaping the crumbly dough was the hardest part.
DeleteI think I'll like these...one of my favorite flavor combos!
ReplyDeleteYes Steph, they are delicious.
DeleteSmart thinking with the chocolate chip!
