Ingredients:

For the Almond Dough: - 250g all-purpose flour (00 flour) - 110g sugar - 40g butter - 50g margarine - 15g crushed amaretti biscuits - 10g peeled and chopped almonds - 1 egg - 1 tablespoon honey - Half a packet of baking powder (sweet) - A pinch of salt

2. Prepare the Cocoa Dough: Using the same method, repeat the process for the cocoa dough, adding in the cocoa powder for a rich flavor.
