Ingredients

1 cup butter
2/3 cup sugar
1 large egg yolk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups flour, all-purpose
1/4 teaspoon salt
6 ounces chocolate
3 teaspoons butter, unsalted

Directions

Cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.

Add the egg yolk and vanilla, then flour, salt, and finely chopped almonds, mixing well.

Shape the dough into 2 rolls, each 1 1/2 inches in diameter.

Wrap rolls (using waxed paper or plastic wrap) and refrigerate until firm, about 2 hours.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. and line baking sheets with parchment paper.

With a sharp knife, cut the dough into 1/4-inch-thick slices.

Place 1 to 2 inches apart on baking sheets and bake for 8 to 10 minutes, just until lightly browned.

Cool on a rack.

Grilled, Stuffed Pork Tenderloin

Really easy, really good! A little salty for my taste--I'd suggest using 1/2 the salt. My kids liked it without the cream sauce.
