Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.25 cup Light corn syrup
- 0.25 cup All-purpose flour
- 0.75 cup Sliced almonds
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Nestle Toll House Milk Chocolate Chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Add the granulated sugar and light corn syrup, stirring until the mixture is smooth and bubbling.
Remove the saucepan from heat, then stir in the all-purpose flour until no lumps remain. Add the sliced almonds and vanilla extract, folding until evenly combined.
Drop teaspoon-sized portions of the batter onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 3 inches of space between each cookie to allow them to spread.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8–10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the cookies are lacy in texture.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes. Carefully transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Melt the Nestle Toll House Milk Chocolate Chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 20-second intervals, stirring after each, until smooth and fully melted.
Spread a thin layer of melted chocolate on the back of each cooled cookie. Pair cookies together with the chocolate sides touching to form a sandwich or leave them as individual pieces.
Allow the chocolate to set at room temperature or refrigerate for 10 minutes for faster setting. Enjoy your Milk Chocolate Florentine Cookies!
