Preparation

Step 1

Beat butter and sugar until creamy. Add almonds/hazelnuts and orange peel/vanilla seeds and beat again. Then add flour and thoroughly mix it in by hand until batter is smooth. Break off cherry-sized pieces of dough, roll them into neat balls, and lay them on baking-tray lined with non-stick baking-paper.

Bake them at 350 degrees for 15 to 20 minutes or until they are golden-brown. Let them cool on rack while you melt chocolate. When they are completely cool, dip flat side in melted chocolate and sandwich them together.
