The ingredients for Chocolate Almond Pretzel Cookies are:

*Flour, white, 4 cup
*Almond Extract, 2 tsp
Cocoa, dry powder, unsweetened, 1/2 cup
Almonds, 1 cup, ground (I grind slivered in my food processor.)
Granulated Sugar, 2 cup
Salt, 1.5 tsp
Baking Powder, 2 tsp
Butter, unsalted, 1.5 cup (Three sticks, room temp)
Egg, fresh, whole, raw, 2 large

Glaze
*Almond Bark, 8 oz (remove)
Shortening, 1.5 tbsp (remove)
Red and green or chocolate sprinkles.

Here is how you make Chocolate Almond Pretzel Cookies:

Cream the butter, egg and almond extract with the sugar. Mix in another bowl: dry ingredients. Combine the two and knead gently. Divide into three balls, cover with plastic wrap and place in fridge for 30 minutes.Preheat the oven to 350 F. Roll the dough into small balls about the diameter of a quarter. Roll each ball into a "snake" about a 1/4 in or less in diameter and about 5 inches long. On an ungreased cookie sheet, for the snake into a pretzel shape. Bake for 8-10 minutes. After the cookies are baked and cooled, melt the shortening and almond bark in a sauce pan with low heat (Be careful, it will scorch.) Dip the pretzels face down in the almond bark, and place back on the cooling rack. Before the almond bark cools, sprinkle the decorative sugar, sprinkles, nonpareils or what have you. Allow to cool completely before storing. Serving Size: One cookieNumber of Servings: 72Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user SKOOTEILENE.
