Ingredients
Yield: 12-20 cookies Time: 25 minutes
Almond Crescent Cookies
- 1 1/2 cup almond meal/flour
- 1/4 cup cornstarch
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp almond extract
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 5 Tbs non-dairy or dairy butter, softened
- Powdered sugar for dusting
Directions
- Begin by preheating the oven to 325ºF and preparing a baking sheet with parchment paper or non-stick liner.
- In a large bowl, cream together the sugar and non-dairy butter.
- Then, mix in the salt, cornstarch, and almond extract. Combine until smooth.
- Finally, mix in the almond meal until the dough is formed. It should be sticky and thick enough to form the cookies.
- Measure about 2 tsp worth of dough and form crescent shapes. Line the cookies on the baking sheet an equal distance apart. You may also flatten the cookies once on the sheet.
- Place the cookies in the oven and bake for 18-20 minutes or until lightly golden brown on the bottom edge.
- Allow the cookies to cool before rolling and dusting in powdered sugar.
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature for 4-5 days.
