CHERRY ALMOND AMISH SUGAR COOKIES
Soft, puffy, melt-in-your-mouth sugar cookies, infused with touches of cherry and almond, and topped with a thick cherry-almond icing! These Cherry Almond Amish Sugar Cookies are guaranteed to be a smash hit for the holidays. Cherry Almond Amish Sugar Cookies are simple to make, foolproof, and a batch goes a long way!
When I made Amish Sugar Cookies for the first time last year, I knew right away that they’d also be amazing as a canvas for other flavors. Such a great, simple, sugar cookie – perfect the way it is, they don’t even need icing – but also very easy to adapt. Amish Sugar Cookies are soft and puffy, but still dense and substantial. They simply melt-in-your-mouth, and that’s a fact!
