Chocolate-Dipped Almond Horns: The Sweetest Bullfight You’ll Ever Have
Alright, buckle up—because we’re about to charge into the land of almond magic, chocolate dreams, and delightfully quirky baked goods. May I introduce: Chocolate-Dipped Almond Horns!
These cookies are shaped like little bull horns, but don’t worry—no running required, and you definitely won’t be gored… unless it’s by flavor.
Crunchy on the outside, chewy on the inside, and dipped in chocolate because, let’s be honest—everything is better with chocolate. They’re kind of fancy, wildly satisfying, and ridiculously easy to make. They’re packed with almondy goodness, and look like something you picked up from a European bakery… but you actually made in your kitchen.
Let’s Horn In On These Ingredients:
- 3 cups almond flour
- ¾ cup sugar
- 2 tsp almond extract
- 3 large egg whites
- Pinch of sea salt
- 2 cups sliced raw almonds, crushed
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 tbsp coconut oil (optional, but makes the chocolate extra silky)
Let’s Get Baking (No Bull 🐂)
-
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the egg whites, sugar, and a pinch of sea salt until frothy and smooth.
-
Add in that glorious almond extract—a few drops of liquid gold—and whisk until combined.
-
Fold in the almond flour and try not to taste the dough yet (but you definitely will). It’ll be soft and sticky—that’s how you know it’s gonna be good.
-
Using a small scoop or spoon, portion the dough into little balls.
-
Crush your sliced almonds (gently! we're not mad at them) and roll each dough ball in the almonds, shaping them into small logs as you go.
-
Now the fun part: curve each log into a horseshoe shape and place it on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Add extra almonds if they’re looking bald in any spots. A well-dressed horn is a happy horn.
-
Bake at 350°F for 15–20 minutes until lightly golden and the almond crust is toasty perfection.
-
While they’re cooling, melt your chocolate with coconut oil (optional, but gives it that glossy bakery sheen). Microwave in 30-second bursts, stirring between, until smooth.
-
Dip the ends of each cookie in melted chocolate (or go rogue and dunk the whole thing, no judgment here).
-
Set them back on parchment paper and chill in the fridge for 10 minutes, or until the chocolate is set and you can no longer resist them.
