A great weekend bake are these chocolate almond cookies that are easy to make as the cookie dough is roll into a log shape and then cut to make each cookie
I think you will enjoy making these cookies that is why I wanted to share this recipe with you
A great cookie to eat with that cup of coffee or cup of tea love it
I certainly will be giving this recipe a go
This recipe has been brought to you by Tammy from yoyomax12 – the diet free zone on YouTube , thanks for sharing this recipe with us
Here below is the video tutorial to watch showing you how to make these cookies al so the ingredients you will need from the YouTube channel
1 cup butter softened
1 cup white granulated sugar
1/2 tsp almond extract
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup ground almonds
1/4 tsp salt
2 oz semi sweet chocolate melted and cooled slightly
In a large bowl, combine the sugar and butter and cream together until light and fluffy (It’s so fluffy!)
Beat in almond and vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl combine the flour, ground almonds and salt.
Stir the dry ingredients into the creamed mixture in 2-3 additions.
Add in the melted chocolate and stir until combined.
***NOTES**** If you want smaller cookies than I made, divide your dough into two or three portions and roll into logs that are about 8 inches long. Wrap and refrigerate until firm, about 2 hours.
If you want the same sized cookies that I made, don’t divide the dough and roll it out into one log, 8 inches long.
You can hurry up the chilling process by putting the log(s) in the freezer for about 45 minutes.
Remove from plastic wrap and slice into 1/2 inch slices. Place on a parchment lined or silicone mat lined cookie sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes at 350F or until they are no longer shiny and firm to the touch. Cool completely.
Drizzle with melted chocolate and decorate with sliced almonds and cherries if desired
