A Florentine biscuit (or simply, a Florentine) is a sweet pastry of nuts and fruit. Florentines are made of nuts (typically hazelnuts and almonds) and candied cherries mixed with sugar melted together with butter and honey, cooked in an oven.

Florentine (comparative more Florentine, superlative most Florentine).

To get started with this particular recipe, we must prepare a few components. You can have florentines using 8 ingredients and 7 steps. Here is how you can achieve that.

The ingredients needed to make Florentines:

1. Get 12 glace cherries
2. Prepare 1 ball of preserved ginger in syrup (optional)
3. Prepare 100 g butter
4. Make ready 100 g demerara or soft brown sugar
5. Prepare 100 g golden syrup
6. Make ready 100 g plain flour
7. Make ready 160 g flaked almonds
8. Make ready 150 g 70% dark chocolate

Florentines demand a careful eye, both going in and coming out of the oven. It is essential to flatten Stir occasionally until liquid. Carefully dip the underside of each florentine in the chocolate and leave. Reverse the pans in the oven midway through the baking time, so they brown evenly.

Steps to make Florentines:

1. Heat the oven to 180C/Gas 4. Cut the cherries and ginger, if using, into small pieces.
2. Add the butter, sugar and syrup to a pan, I also added a pinch of salt, and heat gently until the butter has melted and the sugar has dissolved.
3. Add the chopped cherries and ginger to the flour and mix together with the almonds.
4. Add the dry mixture to the butter and syrup mixture and combine well with a wooden spoon or spatula. Line two large baking sheets with baking parchment.
5. Place teaspoonfuls of the mixture on to the baking sheets, leaving plenty of room for them to spread. Bake for 10 minutes until dark golden brown, remove from the oven and use a knife to push the edges in so they're not too lacy at the sides. Leave on the baking sheets until hardened, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely and crisp up.
6. Melt the chocolate gently in a pan, then dip the undersides of the florentines in it, place upside down back on the wire rack to dry.
7. Eat when the chocolate has set.

Carefully dip the underside of each florentine in the chocolate and leave. Reverse the pans in the oven midway through the baking time, so they brown evenly.
