Melt the dark chocolate over a hot water bath, let it cool down a little and then add the flour, cocoa, almonds, sugar, egg yolk, 1 pinch of salt, vanilla sugar and the butter in small pieces and knead everything. In my opinion, this works better with the hand than with the mixer.
Let the dough rest in the refrigerator for about 1 hour.
Then shape croissants out of the dough and bake them in a preheated oven at 175 ° C for about 10-15 minutes.
After baking, be sure to let them rest a little, as they will crumble apart if you let them slide off the tray while hot. I just pulled the baking paper off the tray and left it on the kitchen table for a few minutes.
I then decorated the croissants with white couverture and sugar pearls. They taste pure or dusted with powdered sugar, but also very tasty.
