Time 1h15m

Yield 32 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 1/2 cups super-fine almond flour
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
3 large egg whites
1 teaspoon pure almond extract
1/3 cup confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment or a silicone baking mat.
  • Whisk the almond flour, granulated sugar and salt in a large bowl to combine. Beat the egg whites in a medium bowl with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until soft peaks form, about 1 minute 30 seconds. Add the almond extract and beat to combine. Fold the egg whites into the dry ingredients using a rubber spatula until a shaggy dough forms.
  • Put the confectioners' sugar in a small bowl. Using a 1-tablespoon scoop, portion the dough and roll into balls. Toss each ball in the confectioners' sugar, coating thoroughly. Arrange the balls 1 inch apart on the prepared baking sheets.
  • Bake, rotating the baking sheets halfway through, until golden brown and the tops crack, 23 to 25 minutes. Let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

Tips:

  • To ensure the cookies set properly, make sure the butter and cream cheese are cold before starting.
  • If the dough is too soft, place it in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes before rolling.
  • When dipping the cookies in the melted chocolate, use a fork to carefully coat them, allowing the excess chocolate to drip off before placing them on the prepared baking sheet.
  • For a fun variation, try adding chopped nuts, dried fruit, or crushed candy canes to the dough before rolling.
  • If you don't have a rolling pin, you can use a wine bottle or even a glass to roll out the dough.
  • To save time, you can use store-bought cookie dough instead of making your own.
  • These cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
