These gluten-free cookies contain almonds in three forms: almond extract, slivered almonds, and almond flour, while cream cheese and butter add rich flavor. Who says gluten-free baking can't be a real treat?

1 glass (st.) - 250 ml.
3/4 cup (st.) - 180 ml.
2/3 cup (st.) - 160 ml.
1/2 cup (st.) - 125 ml.
1/3 cup (st.) - 80 ml.
1/4 cup (st.) - 60 ml.
1 tablespoon (tbsp) - 15 ml.
1 teaspoon (tsp) - 5 ml.
1/5 teaspoon (tsp) - 1 ml.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. In a small bowl, combine the almond and coconut flours. In a medium bowl, combine the butter and sugar and beat with an electric mixer until light and fluffy, 2-3 minutes. Add the cream cheese and continue beating until smooth, about 1 minute. Add the almond extract and egg and beat until fully incorporated. Add the flour mixture and knead until smooth, 1-2 minutes. Gently fold in the flaked almonds.
  2. Transfer the dough to a sheet of parchment or waxed paper and, using the paper as a guide, shape the dough into a 25 x 5 cm log. Wrap the log in plastic wrap and place in the freezer to firm up, about 45 minutes.

  3. Position a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat the oven to 175°C. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  4. Cut the dough into 1-cm-thick slices and arrange them on the prepared baking sheet. Bake until the edges are golden brown, 18-20 minutes. Let cool and serve. The cookies will firm up as they cool.

    Note

    These cookies have a low spread when baked, so you can fit 16 on one baking sheet.
