Instructions

  1. 1. Preheat your oven to 180 degrees Celsius (350 Fahrenheit). Set the oven to top heat mode.
  2. 2. Take a large bowl and add the butter, sugar, and vanilla sugar. Beat the mixture vigorously with a mixer or a fork until it becomes light and fluffy.
  3. 3. Add the egg yolks one by one to the butter-sugar mixture. Stir each yolk in well before adding the next one.
  4. 4. Add the ground almonds and the sifted flour to the mixture. Stir everything gently until a uniform dough forms.
  5. 5. Fill the dough into a piping bag fitted with a plain round tip. If you do not have a piping bag, fill the mixture into a freezer bag and cut off a small corner.
  6. 6. Line a baking tray with baking paper. Lightly grease the baking paper with a little butter.
  7. 7. Pipe finger-length, narrow sticks of dough onto the tray. Make sure the sticks have a small distance from each other, as they spread slightly while baking.
  8. 8. Place the tray in the preheated oven. Bake the cookies for about 10 to 12 minutes until they are golden brown. Make sure they do not burn.
  9. 9. Take the tray out of the oven and let the cookies cool down completely. They must be firm before you use them further.
  10. 10. Melt apricot jam in a small pot with a spoonful of water. Stir until the jam becomes liquid.
  11. 11. Take two cooled cookies. Spread a thin layer of the liquid jam onto the flat side of one cookie.
  12. 12. Gently press the second cookie on top, so the jam sticks the two cookies together. You now have a small sandwich.
  13. 13. Melt chocolate in a double boiler or in the microwave in short intervals. Stir in between until the chocolate is smooth.
  14. 14. Dip half of the cookie sandwiches into the liquid chocolate. Place them on a baking tray lined with baking paper.
  15. 15. Let the chocolate harden completely in the air or in the refrigerator. The cookies are now ready.
  16. 16. Store the finished cookies in an airtight tin box. This keeps them crunchy for a long time.
