While staying at my parents' house in Snowflake, my mom and I made these delicious almond butter cookies. (pictures to follow when I get home!)
The best part is how simple they are.
1 cup almond butter
1 cup sugar
1 egg
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Beat the egg. Add sugar and almond butter. Mix well.
Roll into small balls (about 1 inch). Place on ungreased cookie sheet, about 2 inches apart. Slightly flatten with a fork (just like with regular peanut butter cookies). Bake for about 10 minutes. Let cool.
I really liked these with some Nutella on top! Spoon Nutella into a corner of a plastic baggy and cut the tip of the corner so you can more easily drizzle the chocolate. Or you can just spread it on with a butter knife. Just be careful because it can get messy, as Nutella does not harden!
These cookies were great because they have a lighter, nutty taste. My not-gluten-free family loved these too!
