Omas backgeheimnis

On my trip to Düsseldorf I bought some cookies for my mom. They're called "Omas backgeheimnis" aka granny's secrets. I expected them to be a bit hard and dry but instead they had a really nice texture. They crumble away once you bite into them, but it's still a bit chewy like bitter cookies. I was really surprised to taste chocolate and marzipan as well. And then the middle part is filled with a refreshing cranberry marmalade. Hmmmm, me likey!

I found this recipe online for similar cookies with poppy seeds. I think I'm gonna try it out and switch the poppy seeds for chocolate chips. I'll let you know how it goes :)
