Tip:  For variety, replace the vanilla extract with almond extract.  However, you will use less, about 1/4 teaspoon since it is a strong flavor.

Almond Cookies Recipe:

Tips:

• The dough is very sticky, so I just took my tablespoon measuring spoon and dolloped spoonfuls onto the baking pan prepared with parchment paper.
• It can be tricky to know when they are done because they have this light tan/beige color.
• I took a peek at the bottom of the cookie, lifting with my spatula, and when the bottoms were lightly browned (at about 10 minutes) out they came.
• I let them sit for about 5 minutes in the pan and then cooled on a wire rack.
• I could see where you could easily overbake these cookies so remember – check the bottoms.

How To Make Almond Cookies Recipe:

1. Whisk or mix the wet ingredients in one bowl.
2. Whisk the dry ingredients in another bowl.
3. Add the wet to the dry and mix well.
4. Voila, you’re done!
5. My batch yielded about 25 cookies.
