Ingredients
- ¾ cup butter 1 ½ sticks, 171 g, unsalted
- ½ cup white sugar 100 g
- ½ cup light brown sugar 100 g
- 1 large egg
- 1 tsp almond extract 5 mL
- 1 ¾ cup flour 210 g
- 1 tsp baking soda
- ¾ tsp salt
- ¾ cups dates 120 g, chopped
- ¾ cups pecans 120 g, chopped
- ¾ cup almonds or use more pecans, 120 g, chopped
Instructions
- Prep: Preheat oven to 350°F (176°C).
- Butter: Place butter in a microwave safe bowl and heat in 10 second bursts, until butter is soft but not melted.
- Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, beat together softened butter and sugars. Add the egg and almond extract, beating briefly to combine.
- Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, stir together flour, baking soda, and salt.
- Combine: Add dry ingredients to the bowl with the wet ingredients, folding to combine. Fold in chopped dates, pecans, and almonds.
- 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).
- Squish: While cookies are still soft, lightly flatten each with a spatula. Allow to cool before removing from the sheet and serving.
Notes
- Store in an airtight container in the fridge or at room temperature for 5 to 7 days.
