I make florentines every Christmas time and I also have my own fruit cake recipe for cookies fruitcake cookies. That would have been easier to say! What's with the candied fruits in florentines? They are a nut toffee cookie with chocolate. I saw an Australian recipe and I've seen you a recipe and they both used all sorts of candied fruit and raisins and what not. Those don't go and Florentine cookies just whatever type of not you choose and the original is almond.

Hi Sharon, I hope you still read this after almost 3 years. Do I have to use stem ginger or can I use fresh ginger instead? Another question, I want to toast the almond flakes in a dry pan before they go into the sugar & cream mixture, since I think it brings out their flavor better. Is this ok or might they burn when added to the mixture? Thanks in advance, Joerg.

I tried to make Florentines today. My sugar got very dark and there was a little smoke in the kitchen, but that did not stop me. And another thing, I can taste soda, and chocolate melts in my hands when I hold a cookie. Can you help with any of my troubles? Was hoping to make cool presents for new year. Thank you!

Lovely tutorial and the presentation ideas at the end were great. I honestly freaked out a bit during the caramel making part! I may try this but the sugar part makes me nervous. Your hair stylist does a great job, your look is stunning. Merry Christmas to you and those you love!

Thank you, I will try your recipe - it's without flour, so might be interesting. Your style is nice, but the ring looks cheap. Is it necessary to put it on when cooking? You suppose to cook with clean hands - I do hope you follow hygienic norms?

I like this recipe a lot! I really like your retro style since we can't see many people like that now a days! And love how to dress everything to match, I'm like that too, also I like how clean and neat you are! :)

Oh my goooooodness! I _love_ these, I usually have the ones from M&S but I've never made my own. Off to my cousins party this weekend and I was going to make peanut butter no bakes but I think i'll try these instead.

hi, yes these are delicious, I used HALF the sugar you suggested, and still very sweet. I replaced the mixed peel with lemon orange zest, and some small chocolate nibs. will make another batch with organic coconut!
