Almond Jelly Cookies Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• In a medium bowl, cream together butter and white sugar until smooth. Mix in 1/2 teaspoon almond extract. Mix in flour until dough comes together. Roll dough into 1 1/2 inch balls, and place on ungreased cookie sheets. Make a small hole in the center of each ball, using your thumb and finger, and fill the hole with preserves.
• Bake for 14 to 18 minutes in preheated oven, or until lightly browned. Let cool 1 minute on the cookie sheet.
• In a medium bowl, mix together the confectioners' sugar, 3/4 teaspoon almond extract, and milk until smooth. Drizzle lightly over warm cookies.

Steps:

• Pour 1 cup water in a bowl; sprinkle the gelatin over the water; stir until the gelatin is partially dissolved. Set aside.
• Bring 1 cup water to a boil in a large saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low and slowly pour in the gelatin mixture. Add the milk, sugar, and almond extract; stir until the sugar and gelatin are completely dissolved; pour mixture into a large, shallow container. Refrigerate until firm, 3 to 4 hours. Cut into small squares to serve.

Steps:

• Place an oven rack in the middle position of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Line a rimmed cookie sheet with parchment paper.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the coconut oil, sugars and salt until thoroughly combined and creamy. Add the egg yolks, one at a time, whisking to incorporate, then whisk in the almond extract. Add the almond flour and mix to combine using a rubber spatula or wooden spoon. Add the all-purpose flour and sprinkle in the baking soda. Mix until just combined. (The dough will be stiff.) Fold in the sprinkles.
• Into a bowl with the reserved egg whites, add a splash of water (about 1 teaspoon) and whisk to incorporate. Set aside.
• Using a 1 1/2-ounce ice cream scoop, scoop out a level portion of the dough and place on the prepared cookie sheet. Repeat with the remaining dough, evenly spacing them apart. Press gently to flatten each dough ball to a healthy 1/2-inch thick. Brush the egg wash on the cookies, then top with additional sprinkles. Bake until lightly golden, begin checking at 12 minutes.
• Let cool on the cookie sheet for 10 minutes, then cool completely on a rack. Store in an airtight container.
