Delicate buttery-almond cookies, made with almond flour, are perfect for any occasion, from Easter to birthdays. This recipe will delight both children and adults with its charm and flavor. Making these cookies is so simple that even beginners in the kitchen will have no problem with them.

The base of these crispy cookies is almond flour, which gives them a delicate texture and a flavorful character. The addition of butter makes them exceptionally crumbly and melt in your mouth.

In this super easy recipe, you don't need many ingredients or special skills.

Prepare the chocolate glaze by melting 200 g of white chocolate in the microwave or using a double boiler. Drizzle the cooled cookies with the melted chocolate. Then, gently place half a Rafaello on top of each cookie as a tail. Allow the glaze to set on the cookies, you can also refrigerate them for faster setting. Once the glaze hardens, the cookies are ready to be enjoyed :)
