Ruby Chocolate Amaretti

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 150°C (300°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

   Tip: Use a parchment-lined baking sheet for easy cleanup.

2. 2

   In a medium bowl, whisk together the almond flour, sugar, and espresso powder.

   Tip: This dry mixture will help the cookies retain their shape.

3. 3

   In a large bowl, beat the butter and egg whites until light and fluffy.

   Tip: Add a pinch of salt to balance the sweetness.

4. 4

   Gradually add the dry mixture to the butter mixture, beating until combined.

   Tip: Be careful not to overmix.

5. 5

   Melt the ruby chocolate chips in a double boiler or in the microwave in 30-second increments, stirring between each interval.

   Tip: Stir in the vanilla extract for added flavor.

6. 6

   Pour the melted chocolate into the dough and mix until combined.

   Tip: This will help distribute the chocolate evenly.

7. 7

   Scoop the dough into balls, about 1 tablespoon each.

   Tip: Leave enough space between each cookie for even baking.

8. 8

   Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden.

   Tip: Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

9. 9

   Roll the cooled cookies in confectioner's sugar to coat.

   Tip: This will add a sweet and elegant finish to the amaretti.
