Almond Shortbread Cookies with Orange

A perfectly crisp, buttery cookie that’s not overly sweet but packed with rich almond flavor. This almond shortbread recipe features the rich taste of almond flour and almond extract, complemented by a hint of citrus. Tender and full of flavor, these cookies are easy to roll, and cut with a cookie cutter.
For an extra touch, finish with a drizzle of dark chocolate and a sprinkle of toasted almonds. These cookies are as delightful to make as they are to eat. They’re vegetarian and egg free.
