Soft and fluffy cookies made with almond flour and perfect for little almond butter sandwiches! These are a delicious snack and a switch-up from your usual packaged peanut butter sandwich cookies!
If I were to pick, I choose soft cookies over crunchy! The best ones are slightly crunchy/soft on the outside and super soft on the inside when warmed up. These cookies are stuffed with chocolate espresso almond butter, but you can add in any nut butter you have!
I grew up on the store-bought peanut butter sandwiches cookies, which I still buy now from time to time. At home, I like to experiment on recreating recipes. Honestly, you can sandwich any cookies with nut butter so if you want, oatmeal raisin cookies with almond butter would work too, which actually sounds pretty good to me right now. It’s up to what you like and what ingredients you have on hand.
This recipe only makes 6 cookies since I was just testing out the recipe, but you can double it to make a dozen cookies for 6 sandwich cookies.
