Almond Butter Shortbread Cookies

Categories     dessert

Time 2h20m

Yield About 90 cookies (7 1/2 dozen) (depends on mold used)

Number Of Ingredients 6

8 ounces natural skin-on almonds
1 small 1-ounce bottle almond extract, about 2 tablespoons
1 pound unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 1/4 cups sugar
1 large egg
4 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, sifted

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Grind the almonds in a food processor until very fine crumbs. Transfer to a bowl and pour over half of the almond extract. Stir to combine.
  • Cream together the butter and sugar in a large bowl, using an electric mixer on medium-high speed, until light, fluffy and pale yellow, about 3 minutes. Beat in the egg just until incorporated. Mix in the flour, ground almonds and the remaining almond extract on low speed. The dough should be quite stiff.
  • Press the dough into shortbread molds, filling two-thirds full. Bake, in batches if needed, until golden brown and set, 10 to 12 minutes. Cool in the pans for about 10 minutes, and then gently remove from the molds.

I'm not a big fan of almond butter, but I actually really liked these cookies. The almond flavor is subtle and the cookies are nice and chewy.

These cookies are a great way to use up leftover almond butter. I always have a jar of almond butter in my pantry, so it's nice to have a recipe that I can use it in.

These cookies are a bit too dry for my taste. I think I'll try adding some more butter next time.

I've tried this recipe several times and I can never get the cookies to turn out right. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.

I found the dough to be a little too sticky, but I was able to work with it. The cookies turned out fine, but they're not my favorite.

These cookies are the perfect balance of sweet and salty. The almond butter gives them a rich flavor and the sea salt adds a nice touch of contrast.

These cookies were a hit at my holiday party! They're so easy to make and taste delicious. I used a food processor to grind the almonds, which made the process even quicker.
