Should I use butter or margarine for this recipe?
This depends on you. Making use of butter or margarine have their advantages and disadvantages.
If you use butter, your dough will be softer, and tastier. Also, it will be crumbly. This is because the fat content in butter is much higher than margarine.
How do I measure almond flour correctly?
Spoon almond flour into a dry ingredients measuring cup and level off the top with the flat edge of a knife. Do not compress the almond meal into the cup or you may end up with up to 50% more flour!
What kind of chocolate should I use for an almond Delight cake?
You can use your favorite chocolates. However, dark chocolates work perfectly when paired with nuts like peanuts and almonds.
