Ingredients
- 1 cup sliced Almonds
- 2 3/4 cups all purpose flour
- 1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup butter softened
- 1 cup sugar
- 3 eggs
- 3 tablespoon Amaretto or Almond Extract
- 1 tablespoon water
- 1 cup mini Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. To toast almonds spread on a baking sheet. Bake at 8 to 10 minutes, or until golden brown, stirring frequently. Remove almonds from baking sheet and cool. Coarsely chop almonds to measure 3/4 Cup.
- Place flour, baking powder and salt in medium bowl; stir to combine. Beat butter and sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer at medium speed until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs, 1 at a time. Beat in liqueur to extract and add water. Gradually add flour mixture. Beat at low speed, scraping down the side of bowl occasionally. Stir in chips and almonds.
- Divide dough into fourths. Spread each quarter evenly down center of the waxed paper. Using waxed paper to hold the dough, roll back and forth to form a 15-inch log. Wrap log in plastic wrap. Refrigerate until firm, about 2 hours.
- Place logs at least 2-inches apart on a greased and floured baking sheet. Bake for 50 minutes or until golden.
- Reduce oven temperature to 275°F.
- Cool loaves on a wire rack for 5 minutes. Put loaves on a cutting board and, with a serrated knife, slice at a 45° angle into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Lay flat on the prepared baking sheet and bake until golden and hard, about 20 to 25 minutes, turning them once. Store in an airtight container.
