Chocolate Florentines


One word, BURNED. I was waiting for them to come out as I heard  an Angelic voice singing on the Oprah show. As I watched mesmerized  this little girl with a Celine Dion gifted voice, the cookies burned. They were only in for 15 min (Martha says 15-20) but it was too late.  
Prep: The dough hardens and crumbles quickly so you must work fast. I tasted it before baking and it would have made a great topping just like that.  
Side Note: This is why Martha is MARTHA: So ingenious to think of finely crushing toasted almonds by rolling pin back and forth. I was skeptical when I first read it and had my Macy's baby blue Nut chopper on hand. It worked like a charm.

No more Oprah while Baking.

156 to Go!
