Ruby Chocolate Florentines

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 180°C. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. 2

   In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, almond flour, and salt.

   Tip: Make sure to sift the flours for an even texture.

3. 3

   Add the cubed ruby chocolate to the bowl and mix until well combined.

   Tip: Use a spatula to scrape the sides of the bowl.

4. 4

   In a large bowl, cream together the butter and orange marmalade until light and fluffy.

   Tip: Be careful not to overmix.

5. 5

   Add the sugar to the bowl and mix until combined.

   Tip: Make sure to scrape the sides of the bowl again.

6. 6

   Beat in the eggs one at a time, followed by the orange zest.

   Tip: Use a stand mixer or a hand mixer for this step.

7. 7

   Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined.

   Tip: Be careful not to overmix.

8. 8

   Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

   Tip: This will help the dough relax and make it easier to roll out.

9. 9

   Roll out the dough to a thickness of about 3mm. Cut into desired shapes.

   Tip: Use a cookie cutter or a glass to create fun shapes.

10. 10

    Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.

    Tip: Keep an eye on the florentines while they are baking, as they can burn quickly.

11. 11

    Allow the florentines to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

    Tip: This will help the florentines retain their shape.
