    I am sure this Almond Crisps are the one cookies that will finish faster than the others. Just by the look at the picture already knew it is very YUMMY AND CRUNCHY!

    1. True, I didn't realise how many I've eaten as they are thin and crunchy, luckily no butter or oil.

  2. Hi Veronica,

    I think I can munch at least 2-3 these light and flaky almond crisps within a glimpse of 5 mins. They look super additive.

  4. I haven't baked those nutty crisps in a really long while as I simply have no self control over those addictive treats. Yours look fantastic, Veronica.

    1. Haha of course you are not blind. The fault is all mine. I've amended the recipe. You add the flakes together with the almond meal. Thanks for pointing out.
