      What Are Almond Cookies Called?

      Almond biscuits, or almond cookies, are a type of biscuit made with almonds. They are buttery, soft, and chewy cookies made with almond flour and almond extract and topped with toasted almond slices!

      They are a popular biscuit in many cuisines and come in various shapes and sizes.

      • Spanish almendrados
      • Turkish acıbadem kurabiyesi

      These cookies are quick and straightforward to make and are ideal for gifting or serving on a holiday dessert platter!

      Why Are My Cookies Flat?

      This could be due to your butter being too warm. They will be flat if you use either too warm or too cold butter. Because butter is one of the main ingredients, the cookies will only turn out properly if it is at the proper temperature.

      How to Make the Best Almond Cookies?

      Tips to Make the Best Almond Cookies

      • A combination of all-purpose flour and almond flour works wonderfully for more almond flavoring!
      • Make use of room-temperature butter. This aids in ensuring that the butter is smooth and creamy throughout the dough.
      • The dough should be chilled. Because we’re using room-temperature butter, you should chill the dough before baking. This ensures that the cookies retain their shape and do not spread too much.
      • Before baking, shape the cookies by pressing them down into a disc-like shape about 12 inches thick after scooping the dough onto the baking sheet.
