Step by step recipe
Stage 1 - 5 min.
Tip 16.0 oz ground almonds, 1 lb + 11.5 oz flour, 8.8 oz icing sugar, 2 eggs into the bowl of your mixer and add 9.1 oz butter cut into pieces.
Stage 2 - 4 min.
Knead on low speed for 3 or 4 minutes until evenly mixed.
Stage 3 - 10 min.
Crush 4.4 oz dark chocolate into small pieces and add to the mixture with 2 teaspoons powdered cocoa. Knead for a further 2 or 3 minutes.
Stage 4 - 1 hour
Gather the dough together and form into a roll about 4 cm (2") diameter, then wrap in plastic film and refrigerate at least one hour or overnight.
Stage 5 - 7 min.
Preheat oven to 180°C (360°F).
Remove dough from fridge and cut slices 0.5 cm ( ¼") thick.
You will find that as you slice, the roll of dough will deform, so turn it as you go, and if necessary reshape the slices.
