Ingredients

• 1 Cup butter, melted
• 0.75 Cup white sugar
• 1 Teaspoon (tsp) baking powder
• 2 Teaspoons (tsp) vanilla extract
• 0.5 Teaspoon (tsp) cardamom, ground
• 2 Cups all-purpose flour
• 50 Whole blanched almonds, toasted

Steps

1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C).
2. In a large heavy skillet, cook the butter over medium-low heat without stirring for about 15 minutes until it turns a light tan color. Pour the browned butter into a mixing bowl and place it over a bowl of cold water to chill until firm.
3. Once the butter is firm, add the sugar, baking powder, vanilla extract, and cardamom. Beat until well combined. Gradually stir in the flour until a dough forms.
4. Shape the dough into 1-inch balls and place them 1 inch apart on an ungreased cookie sheet. Top each ball with a toasted almond, pressing it slightly into the dough.
5. Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 12 to 15 minutes or until they are golden brown.
6. Remove the cookies from the oven and transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
