Almond Florentines filled with Gingerbread Cookie Butter

Almond Florentines filled with Gingerbread Cookie Butter

I love to make almond florentines and sandwich two cookies together with Nutella! But I saw this unusual “cookie butter” at Trader Joe’s and thought I’d try it with this cookie. It has the consistency of smooth peanut butter, a little firmer, and the taste of gingerbread. It’s really delicious! In this cookie, I think the filling was masked by the flavor of the florentine alone. But between two sugar cookies it would have been perfect. For this cookie, I think I’ll stick with Nutella or a homemade buttercream! The cookie recipe is in my cookbook 🙂

You can turn something simple into something special just by melting some chocolate. You can either buy melting wafers or the ready to melt containers of dipping chocolate. Use white and dark chocolate for contrast, then put some melted chocolate into a squeeze bottle to decorate!

There’s a cute story behind these cookies too, I posted them a while back but since a friend of mine mentioned that today is National Cookie Day, here it is again:

1   1/2 sticks butter, softened

1/3 cup white sugar

3/4 cup brown sugar

1 egg

1 tablespoon vanilla

1 2/3 cups flour

3/4 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

2 cups white chocolate chips

1 cup shredded coconut

3/4 cups macadamia nuts (or pecans)

Combine flour., baking powder, baking soda and salt and set aside.

In mixing bowl, combine sugars, vanilla and butter and mix on medium speed until blended. Add egg and continue until smooth. Fold in coconut, flour mixture, then nuts, white chocolate chips. Mix thoroughly.

Scoop out onto parchment or silicone lined baking sheet.

Bake 10-12 minutes until just lightly browned. For chewy cookies, bake 9-10 minutes, for crispy cookies bake 12-13 minutes.

The use of the color wheel in the culinary arts…

Part of the premise of my cookbook is how we can apply the opposite colors on a color wheel in the kitchen the same way we do in art. Sometimes just a touch of color from the opposite side of the wheel can enhance your dish in flavor and eye appeal…
