Preparation
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Toast the almonds in the oven on a rimmed baking sheet until fragrant and lightly toasted, about 12 minutes. Let cool; coarsely chop. Reduce the oven temperature to 250°F.
Step 2
Stir together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Beat 1 egg with the wine; stir into the flour mixture. Stir together the almonds, orange peel, and chocolate; stir into the flour mixture. Stir in the honey.
Step 3
Knead the dough on a generously floured work surface just until it holds its shape. Divide the dough into 2 pieces; pat each into a 10 1/2 × 1 1/2 × 1-inch rounded log. Refrigerate the dough 15 minutes.
Step 4
Cut each log into 3/4-inch-thick slices. Gently press the edges of each slice to flatten. Lightly beat the remaining egg. Place the cookies, standing vertically, on a parchment-paper–lined baking sheet. Brush the tops with beaten egg.
Step 5
Bake 20 minutes. Raise the oven temperature to 350°F; bake until the cookies are deep golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes. Let cool on the sheet on a wire rack.
