These cookies were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I'll try making them with less sugar next time.

I was a bit skeptical about making these cookies because I'm not a huge fan of almond flavor. But I'm so glad I gave them a try! The almond flavor is subtle and not overpowering at all. The cookies are also perfectly sweet and chewy.
