I have to confess: I love when people come to my house, for lunch or dinner; I like to set the table for many people, go to shopping food and make a meal that surprises everyone. But sometimes things do not go so well: there are days that I find myself having to cook for many, and I almost do not have time.
That’s how my almond cookies were born, an easy and tasty recipe that is ready in just 10 minutes. It is also prepared with only a handful of ingredients so its perfect if you are in a hurry.
I hope you like it 🙂
With these quantities, I got 46 tiny cookies.
