RECIPES FOR ALMOND COOKIES RECIPES

Steps:

• Pre-heat oven to 375°F Lightly grease cookie sheets. Combine dry ingredients, set aside.
• In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugars together. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, stir in the vanilla.
• Stir in the dry ingredients until well mixed, then stir in the chocolate chips, coconut and almonds.
• Drop by rounded tablespoonfuls onto the prepared cookie sheets.
• Bake for 8 to 10 minutes. Cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees. Using a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment or a hand-held electric mixer and a large bowl, beat the butter and sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Reduce speed to low, add the egg and almond extract, and mix until well-combined and smooth.
• With speed still on low, gradually add both flours and the salt until just incorporated.
• Fill a cookie press with dough, or use a piping bag fitted with a decorative piping tip with a large opening (about 1/2-inch). Press or pipe the dough onto ungreased baking sheets, leaving about 1 inch between cookies. Sprinkle cookies with decorative sugar or sprinkles.
• Bake until firm to the touch and golden brown at edges, 12 to 17 minutes. Transfer sheets to a wire rack to cool slightly, then use a spatula to remove cookies from the baking sheets when they’re still warm (which is easier to do than when they’ve cooled completely).
