Ingredients
- Ingredients
- 2 Vanilla bean
- 280 grams Pastry flour
- 100 grams ground almonds
- 70 grams sugar
- 240 grams cold butter
- Pastry flour (to work)
- 150 grams Dark chocolate
Preparation steps
Halve the vanilla pods lengthwise and scrape the seeds out. Mix the flour with almonds, sugar, butter in small pieces and the vanilla seeds over the workspace, and quickly knead to a smooth dough. Divide the dough into 4 portions and shape each portion into rolls (2-3 cm diameter) (approximately 1 inch diameter). Wrap in plastic wrap and put for at least 1 hour in refrigerator.
Line the baking trays with baking paper. Cut each rolls into 15 thick slices, each about 1 cm (approximately ½ inch) thick. Shape each slice into small croissant and lay on the baking trays. Bake in a preheated oven at 160°C (fan: 140°C, gas mark 2) (approximately 320°F) for about 12 minutes. Remove the trays from the oven and leave to cool.
Chop the chocolate coarsely and melt in a bowl over a hot, not boiling, water bath. Dip the baked croissant half into the melted chocolate and let dry on a wire rack.
