The cookies themselves should still be soft in the middle when you take them out of the oven. They will firm up as they cool, but will maintain that perfect chewy center.

These almond cookies have a rich, nutty flavor with a delightfully chewy center and slightly crisp edges, and I like to sprinkle some powdered sugar over the top for a touch of sweetness and a pretty finish.

Let me show you how to make the best almond cookies with no flour, just almond meal. These cookies are so simple to make and have this rich nutty flavor. And they have this delicious chewy center with slightly crisp edges. To make these almond cookies, first crack open two eggs and separate the yolks from the egg whites. Pick out any shell pieces that fall in. Then pour the egg whites into your mixing bowl. Then add 100 g of castor sugar to the bowl and mix with an electric mixer on medium speed until it looks frothy and slightly thickened. I add the sugar in two parts for more even mixing. Castor sugar works best for this recipe, but if you don’t have any, then regular granulated sugar will be okay. Also, next add 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Then add 1 tbsp of orange zest and give it another quick mix just to combine everything. Next, add half a teaspoon of almond extract. And then add 200 g of ground almonds, which is also known as almond meal. Use a spatula to fold in the almond meal until the dough will become thick and somewhat sticky, as you can see in the video here. Next, drizzle a bit of oil on your hands and then roll the dough into balls about the size of a golf ball. as you can see me doing here. Then gently roll the dough ball and almond flakes to coat the outside. Press the flakes lightly into the dough so that they stick well. Then place each cookie on a baking sheet that is lined with parchment paper, leaving about 2 in between each cookie. You should get about nine cookies from this recipe. Bake the cookies in preheated oven at 170° C or 340° F for about 20 minutes until your kitchen smells absolutely amazing. And the edges of the cookies and almond flakes are a bit golden brown. These almond cookies have a rich nutty flavor with a delightfully chewy center and slightly crisp edges. And I like to sprinkle some powdered sugar over the top for a touch of sweetness and a pretty finish.
