Time 2h20m

Yield 18

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 ½ cups whole raw almonds
½ cup unsalted butter
¾ cup light brown sugar
¼ cup honey
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
1 pinch salt
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips, melted

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.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start baking, make sure you have all the necessary ingredients and tools ready. This will help you stay organized and avoid any unexpected delays.
  • Use Room Temperature Ingredients: When a recipe calls for room temperature ingredients, it's important to follow that instruction. This will help the ingredients blend together more easily and create a smoother batter.
  • Don't Overmix the Batter: Overmixing the batter can make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use a Cookie Scoop: A cookie scoop is a great way to ensure that your cookies are all the same size and shape. This will help them bake evenly.
  • Bake the Cookies Until They Are Golden Brown: The best way to tell if the cookies are done baking is to look for a golden brown color around the edges.
  • Let the Cookies Cool Completely: Once the cookies are baked, let them cool completely on a wire rack before you store them. This will help them keep their shape and prevent them from becoming too soft.

Conclusion:

Honey lace cookies are a delicious and delicate treat that are perfect for any occasion.
