Glazed Almond Cookies image

Elegant little tea cookies with an almond pressed into the top. I like to cut the whole almonds in half to put on top of the cookies.

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup butter, softened
1 cup white sugar
½ teaspoon almond extract
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
2 egg yolks
¾ cup chopped blanched almonds
2.66 cups sifted cake flour
½ teaspoon salt
2 egg whites
48 almonds

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease cookie sheets.
  • In a medium bowl, cream the butter and sugar until light. Beat in the almond and vanilla extracts and the egg yolks. Next, stir in the chopped almonds, flour and salt. Roll the dough into 1 inch balls, dip the balls into the egg whites. Place cookies 2 inches apart on the prepared cookie sheet. Press a whole almond into the top of the ball, flattening the cookie a little bit.
  • Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven, until edges start to brown.

These cookies were a bit too dry for my taste, but I think that's because I overbaked them. I'll definitely try them again and be more careful with the baking time.

These cookies were a bit too bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more spices next time.

I've tried many almond cookie recipes, but this one is by far the best. The cookies are perfectly crisp on the outside and chewy on the inside, and the glaze is the perfect finishing touch.
