The cookies are very good-made 1/2 recipe. Might have used too much almond extract - How many tsp are in a small bottle?

what an interesting site....<3<3<3

Hello user veronicah, That's apparently what the recipe calls for. But I would suggest maybe starting with half of that and add to see if the consistency is what you'd like. Many of our recipes are reader submitted, so sometimes other reader suggestions really can make recipes better. Thanks for the feedback!

recipe calls for 6 cups ground almonds -- why so much?
