Amaretti with coconut flakes

Christmas time is baking time.

Ingredients

• 250g ground almonds
• 1 tbsp flour
• 1 tbsp chocolate powder
• 200g sugar
• 2 eggs
• 1 bottle of bitter almond flavoring 
• 2 tbsp powdered sugar
• optional: 1 tablespoon coconut flakes

Preparation

Prepare all ingredients and mix well in a large bowl, except for the powdered sugar.

Form small balls with a teaspoon and roll in a small bowl of powdered sugar.

Place on baking tray with baking foil.

Preheat oven to 180° convection.

Place baking sheet in the center.

Bake for 11-12 minutes (depending on the size of the balls)

Let the balls cool slightly (best in the cold air) and place them in an airtight container (glass, tin) while they are still lukewarm so that they do not dry out.
