You could roll the dough in chopped, sliced almonds instead of confectioners&#8217; sugar. Give the amaretti cookies a little extra flair by pressing a whole almond on top of each cookie before baking\u2014even though they&#8217;re gorgeous as is!<\/p>\n<h2>How to Store Amaretti Cookies<\/h2>\n<p>Once the amaretti cookies have completely cooled, transfer them to an airtight container at room temperature. They&#8217;re best eaten within three days\u2014otherwise, you can freeze them for up to three months.<\/p>\n<h2>Amaretti Cookie Tips<\/h2>\n<h3>Are amaretti cookies gluten free?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes! Since this recipe uses almond flour (as opposed to all-purpose flour), you can count on amaretti cookies as being gluten-free.<\/p>\n<h3>Why are my amaretti cookies flat?<\/h3>\n<p>Deflated egg whites = flat amaretti cookies. If you don&#8217;t beat the egg whites enough, there won&#8217;t be enough air whipped into them to get soft peaks, which helps the cookies puff up while baking. On the flip side, if the egg whites are overbeaten or stirred too much when incorporated into the rest of the amaretti cookie dough, they&#8217;ll collapse, also resulting in a flat cookie.<\/p>\n<p>The egg whites are also why you shouldn&#8217;t prep these cookies ahead of time. If you were to make the dough and store it in the fridge until baking, you&#8217;re giving the beaten egg whites time to deflate.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Almond lovers will go nuts for these chewy Italian amaretti cookies.
