Notes

  • For best texture, use fine almond flour (not coarse almond meal).
  • If the dough feels very soft, let it rest 5–10 minutes before scooping.
  • Brown sugar adds deeper flavor; white sugar makes the cookies a bit crispier at the edges.
  • Press a few extra chips on top right before baking for a bakery-style look.
  • Dairy-free option: use a stick-style vegan butter; results may be slightly softer.
