Chocolate Almond Crescent Cookies

This is such an easy cookie that is not as sweet as alot of cookies. Use any brand ready pie crust or your own recipe. Cute shape of a rolled up crescent roll but with a great chocolate almond filling. Fun addition to your cookie platters.

Steps

Heat oven to 350.

In a small bowl , combine ground almonds , powdered sugar , and almond extract.

Stir in egg white.

Melt chocolate in a small dish and stir into almond mixture , mixing in well.

Allow crust to come to room temperature.

Unfold / unroll both pie crusts as directed on package.

Place one pie crust on top of the other and place on cutting board.

Cut crusts in half , in half again making 4 sections , in half again , making 8 wedges , and then each of the eight wedges , cut in thirds , creating 24 wedges.

Place about 1 / 2 teaspoon of almond filling at the wide end of each wedge.

If you chose to stack the crusts , roll the top layer first , roll up starting with widest end of wedge , rolling to opposite point.

Place point side down on ungreased cookie sheet.

Repeat with second layer.

These cookies can be placed quite close to each other as the will shrink just a little while baking.

I usually have 24 cookies on one cookie sheet.

Bake in preheated oven for 10 m.
