Time 45m

Yield About 11 dozen cookies

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup cool lightly salted butter, cut into chunks
1 1/4 cups brown sugar
1 1/4 cups granulated sugar
1 tablespoon honey
2 eggs, well beaten
2 cups ground almonds
3 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup slivered almonds

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cream the butter and sugars together until smooth. Stir in the honey, eggs and ground almonds. Combine the flour and the baking soda. Stir into the butter mixture until combined.
  • Pinch off a piece of dough the size of a walnut. Roll it between your palms to form a cigar shape. Place on a parchment-lined cookie sheet. Repeat, placing cookies 2 inches apart. Push a slivered almond into the center of each cookie. Bake until golden brown, about 10 minutes.
  • Immediately transfer cookies to a rack to cool. Cookies can be frozen in an airtight container, with wax paper between each layer, for up to 6 months. Defrost 30 minutes before serving.

I would love to try these cookies with different types of nuts, such as pecans or walnuts.

These cookies are a great way to use up leftover egg whites.

Overall, I thought these cookies were just okay. They weren't bad, but they weren't anything special either.

The cookies didn't turn out as I expected. They were a bit dry and crumbly.

I had some trouble with the dough being too sticky. I had to add more flour to get it to the right consistency.

I'm not a big fan of almonds, but I really enjoyed these cookies. They are light and fluffy, with just the right amount of almond flavor.
