1. Prepare the shortbread dough:
In the bowl of your food processor or in your salad bowl, blend the cubed butter and powdered sugar at slow speed for 5min.
Add the eggs, vanilla flavoring, almond powder and salt. Mix until smooth.
Gradually add the flour and knead until the dough forms a ball.
Place the dough in the fridge for at least 1 hour.
Roll out the dough to a thickness of 3-4mm, then shape the cookies using a cookie cutter.

Bring the cream to the boil, then pour over the chocolate topping.
Once warm, place in the freezer for at least 1 hour.

Using a piping bag, pipe a small amount of chocolate ganache into the center of a shortbread cookie (leaving a few centimeters of cookie).
Cover with a second shortbread cookie, pressing lightly to distribute the ganache.
Enjoy!
