Notes:

  1. For fluffier cookies, whip the egg whites to stiff peaks and incorporate them into the almond paste (similar to making macarons). 
  2. The texture of the cookie should be chewy through the center, similar to a frangipane in a cookie format.

I saw this easy looking recipe and had to give it a try because I was craving cookies and too lazy to cream butter, etc etc that you need to do with a typical cookie recipe. oh. my. goodness. Sooo good for something so deceptively simple! Especially since I cheated and just scooped the batter, rather than pipe it! Definitely try this one!
