Steps:
- Cookies: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spread almonds in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake until noticeably darkened and fragrant, 10 to 15 minutes. Transfer sheet to a wire rack; let cool completely.
- Pulse almonds in a food processor until finely ground. Measure 1 1/2 cups almonds into a medium bowl; set remainder aside. Add flour and salt to bowl; whisk to combine.
- In a mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat butter with confectioners' sugar until smooth and well combined. Beat in egg yolks and vanilla. Gradually add almond-flour mixture, beating until dough just comes together (do not overmix). Turn dough out onto a work surface and divide in half. Shape each half into a 12-inch log (about 1 3/4 inches in diameter); wrap each log in plastic. Refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour.
- Measure 1/2 cup reserved almonds onto a sheet of parchment; roll each log in nuts to coat. Cut logs into 1/4-inch-thick slices, discarding ends. Transfer slices to parchment-lined baking sheets, spacing about 1 inch apart. Bake, rotating sheets halfway through, until edges are slightly browned, 18 to 20 minutes. Transfer sheets to wire racks; let cool completely.
- Filling: Pulse remaining 3 cups reserved almonds and salt in a food processor on low speed, scraping down sides frequently. Mixture will look dry but continue pulsing until it reaches a smooth, spreadable consistency, 15 to 20 minutes.
- In the bowl of a mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat together 1 cup almond butter (reserve remaining 1/2 cup for another use), confectioners' sugar, and butter until smooth, scraping down sides of bowl as needed. Transfer to a pastry bag fitted with a 1/2-inch round tip.
- Pipe a small amount of filling onto bottoms of half the cookies, then sandwich with remaining cookies. Filled cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature up to 1 week.

Tips:
- Soften the butter and cream cheese to room temperature: This will make them easier to mix and will help the cookies turn out smooth and creamy.
- Use a good quality almond butter: This is the main ingredient in the cookies, so it's important to use a brand that you like the taste of. I recommend using an unsweetened almond butter for a more natural flavor.
- Chill the dough before baking: This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much in the oven.
- Don't overbake the cookies: They should be golden brown around the edges but still soft in the center.
- Let the cookies cool completely before filling them: This will help to prevent the jam from making the cookies soggy.
Conclusion:
These almond butter cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat. They're perfect for a quick snack or dessert, and they're also great for packing in lunches or taking on picnics. With their soft and chewy texture and sweet and nutty flavor, these cookies are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
