Almond Florentines: the easy recipe
No Reviews
A small treat that combines almond with caramel, all covered in chocolate for a little moment of indulgence.
Ingredients
150 Chopped almond
75 Sugar
50 Honey
50 Butter
125 Chocolate
Directions
1
Heat the cream, butter, sugar, and honey over high heat to make a caramel for 3 to 4 minutes (until it reaches 112ºC). The mixture should thicken slightly.
2
Then, add the almonds and distribute them into the molds. I used my muffin molds. But don't add too much, otherwise they will be too thick. If you don't have a mold, place small piles on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
3
To finish, bake for 5 minutes at 180ºC until you notice a slight coloring of the almonds. Let them cool and melt the chocolate in a double boiler. To cover them with chocolate, I placed them upside down on a baking sheet and drizzled with chocolate. However, you can put a good tablespoon into clean silicone molds and press the florentins back in...

The florentines are very good! The recipe is really great; first, you need to make the nougatine in molds, heat it, and leave it in the fridge for a good 2 hours. Then, coat them with chocolate, and the result is more than satisfying. I just used half almonds mixed with sliced almonds. -
Sandrine
Too many almonds in relation to the chocolate. Very good recipe, but you either need to increase the amount of chocolate to 175 g or reduce the preparation of the nougatine. My suggestion: Alternatively, I used a flexible tray where I first made the nougatine, which I then unmolded, and then poured my melted chocolate into the molds, placing the small rounds of nougatine on top so that the two stuck together well. -

Super easy and super good. I cooked the mixture long enough until it took on a golden color. This recipe is excellent. Thank you very much for sharing. -

It's just excellent; however, during cooking, everything gets mixed to make a huge Florentine, and it hasn't hardened much... The taste remains perfect. -
Un gars déçu
I tried the recipe without reading the comments beforehand... and indeed, it is not cooked enough. In my opinion, "about 5 minutes" is far from being equivalent to three times that amount of time. So why not correct the recipe if there is an error? It would avoid a lot of disappointment.
