Directions

  1. 1

    Bring the fat, cream, sugar and honey to the boil in a saucepan while stirring. Chop the candied lemon peel finely and add it together with lemon juice, lemon peel, salt, aniseed and flaked almonds to the fat-sugar mixture and let it boil for about 2 minutes at low heat while stirring occasionally. In the meantime, roast the oat flakes in a pan without fat until golden brown. Allow to cool slightly and mix with flour. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the oatmeal and flour mixture. Let it rest for about 15 minutes. Line two baking trays with baking paper.

    Using a teaspoon, place about 25 small heaps of the oat flakes mixture on each baking tray. Press a little flat. Bake in a preheated oven (electric cooker: 200 °C/ convection oven: 175 °C/ gas: level 3) for 8-10 minutes until golden brown. Remove the Florentines carefully from the baking tray and let them cool on a cake rack. In the meantime, roughly chop the chocolate coating and melt on a hot water bath. Dip one Florentine corner into the couverture and let it dry
