Florentine Lacey Almond Cookies

I didn't have any orange zest, but it still had the orange flavor with the marmalade. I used tapioca flour to make it wheat free for my brother in law with allergies.

4 Tbs Butter
3/4 cups Cream
1/2 cup Sugar

Boil at medium heat. Stir once in a while until ring around the sides of pan (7 minutes). Stir constantly until there's a trail following the spoon. Remove from heat.

Then add
2 cups Almonds-grind to course sand texture
3 Tbs Flour
1/4 tsp Salt

Stir together then add

1/4 tsp Orange zest
1/4 cup Orange marmilade

Drop by teaspoon full, 3' apart on parchment paper(6 cookies per sheet). Pat flat with damp fingers.

Bake at 350 for 15-17 minutes, rotate pan half way through baking.
Remove parchment from pan and cool with cookies still on parchment paper.

While cooling, melt
1/2 cup Chocolate chips

Once cookies are cool, spread chocolate on the bottom of the cookies. Cool in fridge for 30 minutes before enjoying.
