I'm not a big fan of Italian desserts, but these cookies were a pleasant surprise. They're not too sweet and they have a nice almond flavor.

I'm allergic to almonds, so I substituted almond flour with oat flour. The cookies turned out great! They were still nice and chewy, and the oat flavor was a nice touch.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my cookies turned out really dry. I think I might have overmixed the dough.

These were a disaster! I followed the recipe exactly, but they turned out flat and crumbly. I'm not sure what went wrong.

Not bad, but not great either. The texture was a bit dry and the almond flavor was a bit weak.

These were a bit too sweet for my taste, but overall they were still good. I might try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

These amaretti biscuits were a delight to make and even more delightful to eat! The almond flavor was rich and nutty, and the texture was perfectly crisp on the outside and chewy on the inside. I'll definitely be making these again soon.
