Yield Makes about 11 dozen cookies

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 2/3 cups blanched almonds (about 3/4 pound)
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoons almond extract
1/2 prepared Basic Butter Cookie Dough at room temperature
2 egg whites, beaten lightly

Steps:

  • Halve 1 cup almonds and reserve.
  • In a food processor grind almonds with sugar and salt until fine. In bowl of a standing electric mixer beat almond mixture and almond extract into basic dough until just combined well. Pat dough into a rectangle. Chill dough, wrapped in wax paper, at least 1 hour or overnight.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Working with one third of dough at a time, roll out each piece of dough between two sheet of wax paper into a 12- by 9-inch rectangle, slightly more than 1/8-inch thick. Cut dough into 1 1/2- to 2-inch almond shapes (or any other shape preferred), arranging cookies about 1/2 inch apart of baking sheets. If dough becomes too soft to work with, freeze or chill uncut dough on baking sheet until firm.
  • Brush cookies lightly with egg whites and gently press a reserved almond half in center of each cookie.
  • Bake cookies in batches in middle of oven until pale golden, about 10 minutes, and cool on racks. Cookies may be stored between layers of wax paper in airtight containers up to 6 weeks frozen.

These crisps are so easy to make, even my kids can help. We had a lot of fun making them together.

I'm not a huge fan of almond butter, but these crisps were surprisingly good. The honey and sea salt really balance out the flavor.

These crisps are a great make-ahead snack. I made a batch on Sunday and they were still fresh and crispy on Wednesday.

I love how customizable these crisps are. I added some chocolate chips to mine and they were delicious.

These crisps are a great way to use up leftover almond butter. I always have a jar of almond butter in my pantry and these crisps are a great way to use it up.

Just made these and they are amazing! So easy and quick to make. I used a little less honey than the recipe called for and they were still plenty sweet.

These almond butter crisps were a hit! They were so easy to make and turned out perfectly crispy and delicious. I loved the combination of the almond butter and honey. Will definitely be making these again.
