Susumelle calabresi chocolate biscuits
Susumelle are an appetizing dry dessert typical of Calabrian pastry art.

Servings: 6 Preparation Time: 20 minutes Cooking Time: 15 minutes

Ingredients

  • 2 ½ cups (500 g) flour 00
  • 1 tablespoon (15 g) cocoa powder
  • 1 cup (200 g) sugar
  • 2 teaspoons (10 g) cinnamon
  • ¼ cup (50 ml) milk
  • 1 cup (200 g) wildflower honey
  • 1 tablespoon (16 g) baking powder
  • ¼ cup (50 ml) water
  • 1 cup (200 g) dark chocolate

Instructions

 

Prepare the Honey Mixture

Pour the honey and water into a saucepan and heat over low heat until the honey is completely melted. Remove from heat and let it cool.

 

Prepare the Dough

In a bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, and baking powder. Add the milk, sugar, and cinnamon, then incorporate the honey mixture.

Knead everything by hand until you obtain a compact and uniform dough.

 

Shape the Biscuits

Transfer the dough onto a floured work surface and roll it out into a thin sheet using a rolling pin. Cut the biscuits into oval shapes using a pastry cutter.

Place them on a baking tray lined with parchment paper, leaving space between each biscuit.

 

Bake

Bake in a preheated oven at 190°C (374°F) for about 15 minutes, until small cracks appear on the surface.

Remove from the oven and let them cool completely.

 

Prepare the Glaze

Melt the dark chocolate using a bain-marie. Once melted, let it cool slightly, then dip the top of each biscuit into the chocolate.

Place the glazed biscuits back onto the tray and let them set for about 1 hour.
