These buttery almond croissant cookies are a delightful treat, perfect for any occasion. Flaky, crisp, and bursting with almond flavor, they're surprisingly easy to make!
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, cream together the butter and powdered sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg and almond extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, almond flour, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Roll the dough into small balls (about 1 inch in diameter). Place the balls onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving some space between them.
Top each cookie with sliced almonds.
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
