Almond Shortbread Cookies are a super simple dessert to bake

Just 6 ingredients in these easy gluten-free cookies. They are buttery and delicious!



I’ve been doing a bit of a pantry clean out and found some almond flour from making macarons a while back. I didn’t have the time for macarons so I decided to try making shortbread instead. They are full of almond flavor with a great texture.

Beat at medium speed until well combined. 

Scoop into 1 inch balls and roll in sugar.  Place on a lined baking sheet about 2 inches apart. Mash with a small glass.  Press almond slices into cookie dough. Bake until light brown around the edges. 

Remove to a wire rack to cool.  Store in an airtight container up to 5 days.
