Crack the egg into the well, knead quickly, and refrigerate the dough. Roll out the dough and cut out cookies using a round cutter. Place the cookies on a greased baking sheet and bake for about 10 minutes at 175°C. Melt the nougat and chocolate coating separately in a water bath. Spread the undersides of half of the cooled cookies with nougat and place the other cookies on top. Dip half of the cookies into the chocolate coating and decorate with chopped almonds. Allow everything to dry thoroughly.
