Mandel Schokoladen Plätzchen - German Almond Chocolate Cookies

MANDEL SCHOKOLADEN PLÄTZCHEN

This recipe is from my grandmother. I rediscovered a whole bunch of her recipes and I am determined to bake all of them this christmas season. I made these last week and they were gone after couple of days.

Ingredients:
100g butter
70g sugar (org. recipe is calling for 100g but even with 70g it was pretty sweet)
1 tsp. vanilla
1 egg
50g almond slivers
100g flour
75g old fashioned oatmeal
100g chocolate chips
1tbsp Hirschhornsalz  (Ammonium Carbonate or Bakers Ammonia)

What you do:
Mix butter, sugar, egg and vanilla with an electrical mixer until it is creamy.
Add almonds, flour, chocolate chips as well as the Bakers Ammonia. The Bakers Ammonia needs to be dissolved in water (use as much water as needed for it, should be couple of tbsp.)
Use 2 teaspoons to make little cookie dough mountains on parchment paper.
Bake for 12 minutes on 392 Fahrenheit. It will smell delicious when it is done!

Guten Appetit!
