Easy Almond Joy Cookie Recipe
These chocolate and coconut Almond Joy cookies are some of the best cookies I’ve made in a long time! They’re soft, ultra chewy, and loaded with amazing texture and so much almond-coconut flavor. The crunchy and buttery slivered almonds, the sweetened shredded coconut, and plenty of chocolate make the cookies so satisfying. I used Fisher Natural Sliced Almonds, which are perfect for baking because they don’t contain added salt. I was recently in New York City on a trip sponsored by Fisher with a dozen other bloggers. While there we attended a cooking demo that Chef Alex Guarnaschelli hosted at her restaurant, Butter. I’ve always loved watching her on Chopped and Iron Chef and it was so fun to meet her and watch her cook. It was a fast, whirlwind trip and then I came home and made cookies.
