Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start baking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and equipment ready to go. This will help you stay organized and avoid any mishaps.
  • Use High-Quality Ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will directly impact the taste of your cookies. Use the best ingredients you can afford, especially for the coffee and almonds.
  • Don't Overmix the Dough: Overmixing the dough will make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the Dough: Chilling the dough before baking will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the Cookies at the Right Temperature: The cookies should be baked at a high temperature (375°F) for a short amount of time (10-12 minutes). This will help them develop a crispy exterior and a chewy interior.
  • Let the Cookies Cool Completely: Before storing or serving the cookies, let them cool completely on a wire rack. This will help them set and prevent them from becoming too soft.

Conclusion:

These coffee almond crisps are the perfect treat for any occasion. They are easy to make, delicious, and sure to impress your friends and family. So next time you are looking for a sweet treat, give these cookies a try. You won't be disappointed!
