ANU CAKES N BAKES: Almond Butter Cookies - NO Flour - Gluten-Free

The simplest, tastiest and healthiest cookies I have ever made. I should definitely not forget to thank the person who shared this recipe to me, that is, Randi. She is one of the best person's I have met. Thank you so much Randi. I always look for easiest methods to get make things and make the most of the ingredients that I use; so eventually you will end up with using less ingredients. "LESS is always MORE"....I strongly believe in this. The lesser ingredients you use, it enhances the flavor of each ingredient and if you use more, most of the ingredients are hidden. I am not telling that all recipes with lot of ingredients does taste bad, but for some recipes it will give the best results if you use less ingredients, whose end result will always be elegant and tasty.

I liked these cookies more than any other, because it had the right texture that I always look in cookies; kinda soft, melt in the mouth and a very slight crispy outside.

Ingredients:
------------

1 cup Almond Butter (Click HERE for my recipe to make it at home, else you can use a store bought)
2/3 cup Brown Sugar (you can use either white sugar or a combination of both)
1 Egg
1/2 cup Dark Chocolate oven roasted Almonds (I bought the Blue Diamond brand, if you don't have you can use plain roasted almonds)

Method:
--------
1. Preheat oven to 375F.

2. In a bowl mix all the ingredients except the roasted almonds.

3. Crush/chop these roasted almonds to small pieces and lay it flat on a plate or on a flat surface/counter.

4. Take a scoop of the almond butter cookie dough, roll it to a ball and then flatten a bit and place it over the chopped almonds and cover the two sides.

5. Make all the cookies as in step 4, and place them one by one on a lined baking sheet, leave enough space so that the cookies don't stick to each other.
6. Bake it for about 7-10 mins or until it's done. Enjoy!
