Directions: |
Directions:Heat oven to 350 degrees Bake 10-12 minutes
Beat butter and sugar until light in color.
Add orange peel, cardamom, orange liquor and egg YOLK - mix until blended
Whisk flours and salt together, then add to batter and incorporate just until holding together
Divide dough into 4 logs 2 inches by 6 inches and wrap in plastic and refrigerate overnight or at least 4 hours - I certainly don't do four - just do rectangular shape
Slice dough into 1/4-inch slices and place on parchment lined cookie sheet 1 inch apart and bake
Cool completely
Melt chocolate in a double boiler and stir until smooth
Dip the cookie into melted chocolate HORIZONTALLY until 1/2 of cookie is covered and put on parchment paper ** add topping if desired, and allow to cool |
