Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). (5 minutes)

02

Step
2 mins

In a large mixing bowl, using an electric mixer on medium-high speed, beat together the softened butter and almond butter until light and creamy. (2 minutes)

03

Step
3 mins

Gradually add the 1/2 cup of granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking soda, cream of tartar, and salt, beating until thoroughly combined. (3 minutes)

04

Step
2 mins

Beat in the egg, milk, and vanilla extract until well incorporated. (2 minutes)

05

Step
5 mins

Gradually add the whole wheat flour and as much of the all-purpose flour as the mixer can handle. Stir in the remaining flour by hand until a smooth dough forms. (5 minutes)

06

Step
1 mins

In a shallow bowl, combine the 3 tablespoons of sugar and ground almonds. (1 minute)

07

Step
10 mins

Pinch off tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into 1-inch balls. Roll each ball in the almond-sugar mixture, ensuring it's fully coated. (10 minutes)

08

Step
2 mins

Place the cookies 2 inches apart on ungreased baking sheets. (2 minutes)

09

Step
10 mins

Bake in the preheated oven until the edges are firm and the tops are lightly cracked, 8 to 10 minutes. (10 minutes)

10

Step
5 mins

Immediately press a chocolate almond kiss into the center of each cookie while still warm. (5 minutes)

11

Step
30 mins

Let the cookies cool completely on the baking sheets before transferring them to a wire rack. (30 minutes)

For a more intense almond flavor, try using almond extract in addition to vanilla extract.
Make sure your butter is properly softened to ensure a smooth and creamy dough.
If the dough is too sticky to handle, chill it in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes before rolling.
For a festive touch, use different colors of sanding sugar in place of the almond-sugar mixture.
Store the cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
