You'll need twelve cream-horn molds or four-inch wooden cake dowels to make these horns. For a delicious alternative, add almond extract, raspberry puree, or mini chocolate chips to the whipped cream.

These cookies are amazing. Chewy and covered in toasted almonds and dipped in dark chocolate. YUM! I don't bake a lot of sweets as you have noticed. I am much more of a savory type. My kids beg me every so often to bake some cookies. I give in every now and then. This is a recipe that was given to me by the kitchen at Tanque Verde Ranch in Tucson, Arizona. I changed it up a bit. I added almond extract and used vanilla bean paste. I love the stuff, it makes all baked goods taste amazing…
