Just like mom used to make. Better when eaten a day or two after baking...don't know why. Used walnuts b/c almond allergy. AWESOME.

My husband loves these cookies. I only made few minor changes - half vanilla extract, half almond extract; hand crush sliced almonds so that we can see the almond when eating; instead of rolling in the confectionate sugar (which i did during my first try but turned out to be too sweet and messy), I simply sprinkled the sugar on top with a mesh coffee filter/sieve. They look a lot prettier.

I love this recipe!!! So good. I did a few adjustments to mine. Since I didn't have any pecans I used 1/2 to 1 cup of Walnuts. I found that putting them in the food processor and chopping them very fine works great. I also didn't put all that vanilla extract. I used 1/2 teaspoon of pure vanilla extract. I also didn't add the salt and that was because I forgot. It still was amazing. After mixing all the ingredients, I placed the bowl with the dough in the fridge for 30 minutes so the dough will set a bit. It was easier to make the balls to put on the cookie tray. Mine turned out perfect in 20-22 minutes in a gas oven. They just melt in my mouth every time I bite one. They are so addictive! Great recipe!! Thanks.

These cookies are wonderful--I used macedamia nuts instead of almonds--absolutely delicious!

wow, these are perfect, I also didn't add salt and used salted butter, they are so good you want to keep eating them!I am not a baker and these are so easy to make, I did try using my cookie press, but the dough was too crumbly, I did manage to make a tray, I dipped them in the powdered sugar, I'm thinking dipping them in chocolate! Love it! thanks for sharing!
