Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 113 grams Unsalted butter
- 120 grams Almond butter (smooth)
- 150 grams Granulated sugar
- 50 grams Brown sugar (packed)
- 1 large Egg
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 150 grams All-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 50 grams Sliced almonds
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the unsalted butter and almond butter. Use a hand mixer or stand mixer to beat until smooth and creamy, about 2 minutes.
Add the granulated sugar and brown sugar to the bowl. Beat until light and fluffy, approximately 2-3 minutes.
Crack in the egg and pour in the vanilla extract. Mix well until fully incorporated.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Gently fold in the sliced almonds with a spatula, ensuring even distribution throughout the dough.
Using a teaspoon or a small cookie scoop, drop rounded dollops of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.
Bake one sheet at a time in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set. Rotate the sheet halfway through if necessary to ensure even baking.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week. Enjoy!
