Steps:
- Divide almond paste into six equal portions. Form each into a cone shape, about 1-1/2 in. tall and 1 in. in diameter. Beginning at the base, insert pointed end of almonds into paste to resemble a pinecone.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt chocolate chips and shortening; stir until smooth. Insert a toothpick into bottom of each cone. Holding over bowl, spoon melted chocolate over almonds (if needed, use another toothpick to spread the chocolate to completely cover almonds). Place on a wire rack over waxed paper; let stand until firm.

CHOCOLATE-ALMOND PINE CONES
In ancient mythology, pine cones symbolized motherhood and fertility. These edible pine cones, made from almond paste and melted chocolate and similar in flavor to a chocolate-covered cherry, are a perfect addition to the Christmas dessert table.

Steps:
- Divide almond paste into 12 equal portions. Form each into a cone shape, about 1 1/2 inches tall and 1 inch in diameter.
- Beginning at the base, insert the pointed end of the sliced almonds into the paste to resemble a pine cone.
- Melt chocolate and shortening in a microwave-safe mixing bowl in 15-second intervals, stirring after each interval, 1 to 3 minutes. Add more shortening if needed to achieve a somewhat runny consistency that will easily coat a surface.
- Insert a toothpick into the bottom of each cone. Holding the pine cone over the bowl, spoon melted chocolate over each pine cone. Use another toothpick to spread the chocolate so that the pine cone is completely covered.
- Place on a wire rack over wax paper; let stand until firm, about 2 hours. Using a sifter, dust each pine cone with powdered sugar to resemble snow. Use immediately or store in an airtight container at room temperature for several weeks.
