These horns are one of my husbands favorites, and somehow I just got around to bake them today. It took a pandemic before I made these for him. Poor guy.

This is basically a kransekage rolled in sliced almonds and dipped in chocolate, so what's not to like??

The horns do freeze well, but defrost them slowly in the refrigerator.

Makes 12.

Ingredients:

400 g almond paste (marzipan or almond paste with more than 60% almonds)
100 g confectionary sugar (powdered sugar)
1 egg white
75-100 g sliced almonds
dark chocolate (tempered)

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 400℉ (200℃).

Mix almond paste, sugar, and egg whites well. Roll the ‘dough’ into 2 logs the size of a thick thumb. Cut each log into 6 pieces. Somehow I ended up with only 11 🤷‍♀️

Roll each pice in sliced almonds, bend them slightly and place them on a parchment paper lined baking pan.

Bake the horns for 12 -15 minutes until they a very light golden. Let the horns cool down on a wirerack before dipping the ends in tempered chocolate.

Enjoy!
