Almond Butter Mini Egg Cookies
Description
This recipe blends almond butter with coconut sugar, egg, and vanilla extract to create a smooth wet base. Baking soda, baking powder, and almond flour are folded in for leavening and structure. Cacao nibs and crushed mini chocolate eggs are incorporated for texture and sweetness. The dough is portioned by tablespoon, slightly flattened, and topped further with crushed mini eggs for visual appeal.
Baked at 350°F (177°C) for 9 to 11 minutes, the cookies puff up slightly and remain soft. After a short cooling on the baking tray, they are transferred to a wire rack to finish cooling. The result is a batch of petite, almond-flavored cookies with a chocolate candy crunch inside and on top.
This recipe makes approximately 10 small cookies suitable for a snack or dessert portion. The use of almond butter and flour provides a distinctive nutty flavor that complements the sweet mini eggs. The cookies hold their shape well and can be stored for multiple days in an airtight container.
