Almond Caramel Cookies

Especially at Christmas time, everyone has their evergreens, which end up on the cookie plate every year.
For us, things are usually very classic too. We especially love vanilla crescents, nougat cookies and gingerbread, but sometimes it just has to be something different. In this case, they are vegan almond caramel cookies!

Our new addition is a layer of tasty dough consisting of almonds, topped by a layer of almonds and caramel.
For decoration and because chocolate goes well with it, we also put a few thin chocolate strips on top.

We think they are super pretty and with the mixture of the textures of the cookie and the almonds with caramel a really great change! – by the way, not only at Christmas time!
