Directions

Step

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step

In a large bowl, cream together softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.

Step

Beat in the egg, ensuring it's well incorporated. Stir in almond extract for an extra boost of almond flavor.

Step

In a separate bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, almond flour, and salt.

Step

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter and sugar mixture, mixing just until combined.

Step

Gently fold in the chopped almonds until evenly distributed throughout the cookie dough.

Step

Scoop out tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls. Optionally, press a whole almond into the center of each cookie for a decorative touch.

Step

Place the cookie dough balls on the prepared baking sheets, leaving enough space between each.

Step

Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the edges are golden brown. The centers should still be slightly soft.

Step

Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Delight in the nutty elegance of Almond Cookies with each delightful crunch.
