Instructions

  1. Prep: Preheat oven to 350°F (176°C).
  2. Butter: Place butter in a microwave safe bowl and heat in 10 second bursts, until butter is soft but not melted.
  3. Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, beat together softened butter and sugars. Add the egg and almond extract, beating briefly to combine.
  4. Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, stir together flour, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Combine: Add dry ingredients to the bowl with the wet ingredients, folding to combine. Fold in chopped dates, pecans, and almonds.
  6. Bake: Roll the dough into 18 large balls and place on a parchment lined baking sheet. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, until cookies look puffy and just barely golden (do not over bake).
  7. Squish: While cookies are still soft, lightly flatten each with a spatula. Allow to cool before removing from the sheet and serving.

Notes
