Ingredients

½ cup almond butter

½ cup butter, softened

½ cup granulated sugar

½ cup packed brown sugar

½ teaspoon baking soda

¼ teaspoon salt

1 egg

1 teaspoon almond extract or almond emulsion

½ teaspoon vanilla extract

1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour

2 ounces or 4 white chocolate squares, broken into pieces (1 ounce/2 squares will go inside the cookie dough, the other half/1 ounce or 2 squares will be used on the tops of the cookie dough)

Instructions

1. Put the softened butter and almond butter in a large mixing bowl.

2. With the hand mixer or self-standing mixer, mix the butter and almond butter on medium setting for 30 seconds.

3. Add the packed brown sugar, granulated sugar, baking soda and salt into the butter mixture. Mix until combined.

4. Using your spatula or mixing spoon, scrape the inside of your bowl.

5. Next, add the inside of your egg, the vanilla extract and almond emulsion or extract into the mixture and mix it again with your mixture.

6. With the mixer on LOW speed, SLOWLY pour the flour into the mixture; or, with your spatula or spoon, pour the flour into the mixture and stir everything until they are combined. It should look and feel thick like dough.

7. With clean and hands and fingers, crumble/break half (or 1 ounce, 2 bars) of your white chocolate squares into fourths or quarter sizes, put these into the mixture; and with a spatula or spoon, mix in the chocolate by hand.

8. Put the rest of the chocolate squares/pieces to the side as you’ll need them for later. 9. Cover the top of the mixing bowl with either plastic wrap or foil. Then put the bowl into your refrigerator to chill the dough for for 60 minutes or one hr.

10. Once the hour has passed, preheat your over to 350 degrees. Make sure your oven rack is in the middle of the oven.

11. Take your cold mixing bowl that is filled with the cookie dough and put it on the counter.

12. Take out your cookie sheet or pan and place on the counter.

13. Put either parchment paper on top of the cookie sheet/pan; or spray the cookie sheet/pan with the baking spray.

14. With your cookie scoop, drop hefty amounts of dough onto the cookie sheet/pan and keep the dough 2 inches apart from each other as the cookies will spread while baking.

15. Press the cookies down a little bit with two fingers. (If it’s sticky you can dip your fingers into some flour and then press the cookies).

16. Take the remaining white chocolate pieces and lightly push 2-3 pieces on top of each mound of dough.

17. When the oven is at 350 degrees, put the cookie sheet/pan in the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes or until the edges of the cookies are browned lightly.

18. With oven mitts, remove from oven and let cool for at least 10 minutes before removing them from the pan. The top of the cookies will look puffy once they come out of the oven but will become level upon cooling.

19. Enjoy them with your favorite milk or ice cream.
