delicate, aromatic cookies with chocolate and cashew nuts

Melt the chocolate in a double boiler. Cream the butter and powdered sugar until creamy, then stir in the egg yolk. Stir in the chocolate mixture first, then the nuts and flour. Wrap the dough in foil and chill for about 2 hours. Then form it into about 40 balls, place them at least 4 cm apart on baking sheets lined with baking paper, and press a cashew into each one. Bake at 180°C for about 12-15 minutes. Store in a tightly sealed container, perhaps with an apple wedge for the first two days to ensure they are nice and tender. Makes about 40 balls.
