Cowgirl Cookies image

These cookies are reminiscent of a white chunk macadamia nut cookie but better. Using slivered almonds instead of macadamia nuts is a more economical alternative. Follow baking directions. The cookies can be a little tricky to get right on the first pan. Unless the oven is preheated, they might not turn out. Note that these cookies don't bake well on airbake pans.

Yield 54

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 ½ cups margarine, softened
¾ cup white sugar
2 ¼ cups packed brown sugar
3 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 teaspoons almond extract
3 cups all-purpose flour

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease two cookie sheets.

These cookies were a disaster. They spread out too much and ended up burning.

I found these cookies to be a bit dry. I think I'll try adding some extra butter next time.

These cookies are a bit too sweet for my taste, but they're still pretty good.
