Chocolate almond crescent cookies are small, buttery cookies made with ground almonds, cocoa powder, and chocolate chips. After mixing, the dough rests in the refrigerator before being shaped into crescents, brushed with milk, and sprinkled with almonds. Bake them for just 10–12 minutes at 180 °C (350 °F), then drizzle with chocolate once cool. The recipe makes a large batch, perfect for a Christmas cookie platter or serving to guests.

Instructions
Tip: tap a step to mark it as done.
Combine all the dough ingredients, including the chocolate chips, and knead into a dough. Refrigerate to let it rest, then roll it out and shape into crescents.
Arrange the crescents on a baking sheet, brush with milk, and sprinkle with almonds. Bake in an oven preheated to 180 °C (350 °F) for 10–12 minutes. Let the cookies cool, then drizzle with melted chocolate.
Tip: For drizzling, pour the melted chocolate into a small bag, snip off just a tiny corner, and drizzle it over the cookies in a zigzag pattern. Let the chocolate set on a wire rack.
