Ingredients

0.5 cup butter, softened
0.5 cup white sugar
0.5 cup ground almonds
1 large egg
2 teaspoons amaretto liqueur
1.25 cups all-purpose flour

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) for baking.
In a large bowl, cream together butter and sugar using an electric mixer until the mixture is light and fluffy. Incorporate the ground almonds, egg, and amaretto until well combined. Gradually add flour, mixing until a dough forms. Drop spoonfuls of dough onto ungreased baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 5 to 8 minutes, or until the cookies are lightly golden brown. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 2 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
