Chocolate Almond Cookies image

What a great twist on a classic chocolate chip cookie. The almond paste really adds a rich almond flavor. A perfect flavor combination with the chocolate chips. Almond slivers give the cookie a slight crunch. From the smell of these baking, we couldn't wait for them to come out of the oven. They did not last long in the kitchen.

I'm allergic to almonds, so I substituted chopped walnuts in this recipe. The cookies turned out great and my family loved them.

I followed the recipe exactly and the cookies turned out great. They were crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside.

These cookies were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I would probably cut back on the sugar next time.
