Time 2h45m

Yield Makes 2 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 sticks unsalted butter, softened, plus more for pans
3/4 cup sugar
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/2 teaspoon coarse salt
4 ounces toasted almonds, finely ground
6 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped (about 1 1/3 cups)

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, beat butter with sugar on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add flour, spices, salt, and almonds and beat well on low speed until dough starts to come together, about 1 minute. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Brush 2 madeleine pans with softened butter. Press 2 packed tablespoons of dough into each mold (dough should be level with top of mold).
  • Bake until edges are brown, about 20 minutes. Let cool 10 minutes in pans on a wire rack. Turn pans upside down over rack and tap to release cookies from mold. Let cool completely on rack.
  • Melt chocolate in a metal bowl set over (not in) a pan of simmering water, or in a double boiler. Dip each cookie on the diagonal into chocolate, then place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Refrigerate until chocolate is set, about 30 minutes.

These cookies are a great way to use up leftover chocolate chips.

I would make these cookies again, but I would make a few changes. I would use less sugar in the dough and I would make the chocolate dipping sauce thinner.

Overall, I thought these cookies were just okay. They weren't as good as I was hoping they would be.

The chocolate dipping sauce was a bit too thick. It was hard to get it to coat the cookies evenly.

The cookies didn't spread out very much in the oven. They were more like little balls.

I had a hard time getting the dough to come together. I had to add a lot of extra flour.

These cookies were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good.
