Almond biscuit

An almond biscuit, or almond cookie, is a type of biscuit that is made with almonds. They are a common biscuit in many different cuisines and take many forms. Types of almond biscuits include almond macaroons, Italian amaretti, Spanish almendrados, Armenian nshablits (Armenian: նաշաբլիթ), qurabiya (a shortbread biscuit made with almonds), and Moroccan biscuits and desserts. In addition, Turkish şekerpare are often decorated with an almond.

In Norway, sandbakelse or sandkake are a type of almond cookie that is baked in fluted tins.[1]

In Indonesia, almond crispy cheese is a type of crispy flat almond cookie with almond and cheese on top.[2]

In Turkey, Acıbadem kurabiyesi is made of almonds, sugar and egg whites.[3] The traditional recipes include a small amount of bitter almonds, which gives this cookie its name. However, because bitter almonds are not readily available, almond extract is typically used as a substitute.[4]

Many types are crisp; some, such as the Italian amaretti morbidi, are soft and chewy.
