Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 113 grams Unsalted butter, softened
- 150 grams Granulated sugar
- 50 grams Brown sugar, packed
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Almond extract
- 0.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 130 grams All-purpose flour
- 90 grams Almond flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 75 grams Slivered almonds
- 10 grams Powdered sugar (optional, for dusting)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until light and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the egg, almond extract, and vanilla extract to the bowl. Beat until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, almond flour, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Fold in the slivered almonds, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, form 1-inch balls of dough and place them on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Gently flatten each dough ball slightly with your hand or the back of a spoon.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers will still appear slightly soft.
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
If desired, dust the cooled cookies with powdered sugar before serving.
