These might be the easiest (and most delicious!) cookies I’ve ever made. I mean, seriously. We’re talking about 2 minutes prep time, and the hardest work is measuring a couple of ingredients.
Which – as you might guess – isn’t that hard at all.
Just throw together some almond flour, some sugar, some water, some vanilla and almond extract, and a kiss of salt just to round everything together.
Hello, simple and easy lip-smacking cookies!
So, if you’re in the mood for the perfect baked treat with a cup of coffee or tea, just grab that mixing bowl and a very few ingredients. And you’re ready to go!

If you’d prefer not to use granulated sugar, you don’t have to! Feel free to grab some coconut sugar, or even light brown sugar for a fun depth of flavor!
For a different flavor profile…mini chocolate chips would be amazing in these cookies! As would dried cranberries, dried cherries, or even dried blueberries!
