pepper: Pepperpot (Cookie)
I accidentally made an almond version of langue de chat biscuits today. As is the sort of thing that happens with my baking. Although usually my unexpected disasters are a little less delightful.

The recipe I used just called them 'almond biscuits', and claimed they could be rolled, but this was a liiiiiiiiiie. They were very nearly batter. I'd made them once before, but added a ton of flour, and they were nice, like almond shortbread.

This time, I decided to make them more liquidy, adapt the recipe a little to make them more almondy (I love almonds), and adapt the method completely. They tasted fabulous. Had I realised how much they'd spread in the oven, I'd have put them further apart, and they'd also look fabulous. As it is, I ended up with a puddle of biscuit, which had to be cut apart with a pizza wheel.

Still. Delicious!
