Chocolate cookies for Christmas are a must for me. Here I have a very chocolatey recipe that we really enjoyed. Just give it a try:
Extra tip: These cookies can be decorated in new ways again and again. A powdered sugar glaze can also be used here. The couverture chocolate can also be colored with a little food coloring.

Finely chop the dark chocolate, or even grate it.
Knead flour, almonds, vanilla sugar, salt, chocolate, egg, butter (in small pieces), cocoa and 100 g powdered sugar into a smooth dough.
Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and chill for 30 minutes.
Roll the dough out on a floured work surface to about 3–4 mm thickness and cut out hearts.
Of course, any shapes can be cut out here.
Place the hearts on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake at 175 °C (top and bottom heat) for about 15 minutes.
Chop the white couverture and melt it over a water bath.
Dip one side of the cooled cookies into the chocolate.
Let dry on a rack.
These cookies can be decorated again and again. You can also use a powdered sugar glaze here. The couverture can also be colored with a little food coloring.
