Ingredients
- 1 1/4 cups almond flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 stick unsalted butter, softened
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Passion fruit or mango sorbet, for serving
Instructions
- Whisk the almond flour, salt and baking soda in a bowl. Beat the butter and sugar in a separate bowl with a mixer until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg and vanilla until smooth, then mix in the dry ingredients. Refrigerate the dough until firm, about 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with silicone mats or parchment paper. Drop heaping teaspoonfuls of dough about 3 inches apart on the prepared sheets. Bake until golden and crisp, about 8 minutes.
- Let the cookies cool about 2 minutes on the baking sheets. One at a time, gently lift each cookie with an offset spatula. Immediately wrap it around the handle of a wooden spoon to curl. Once it sets, slide the cookie off the handle and let cool on a rack. Repeat with the remaining dough, allowing the baking sheets to cool between batches. (Don’t make too many cookies at once; they need to be shaped while still warm.) Serve with sorbet.
Reviews
Super easy and tasty cookies. No matter how I timed it, I couldn’t get them to roll without cracking. So I left them flat. Served them with vanilla ice cream…they were a big hit.
Delicious! My only complains are two; difficult to roll up, and not enough left from my company fir me
I thought they were super easy to make. I rolled them into a tube shape and will leave them until tomorrow when they crunchy. I plan to fill them with sweetened ricotta (cannoli) and dust them with powdered sugar and drizzle a little choc on the end.
These are lovely. I did not roll up but left flat and stacked between scoops of vanilla ice cream, chocolate syrup and whipped cream. I will add chopped almonds next time for some texture. Great recipe! Thank you!
These are amazing. Fun to make and shape, even more fun to awe dinner guests with my brilliance and culinary expertise. The taste — crunchy and then they just melt in your mouth.These must be tried to be believed.
