Gluten-free Almond-Chocolate Cookies
Pane-Bistecca
Fine gluten-free almond-chocolate cookies very quickly mixed together and so delicious. My daughter is coming to visit and so I bake in advance, and definitely gluten-free!
My daughter has coeliac disease, a gluten allergy. So, you have to be very careful what you cook and how you prepare it. At first, when she was diagnosed, I really didn’t know how to cook, as wheat is in almost everything. I panicked as soon as I had to cook. But it’s actually not that difficult if you stick to certain rules! I have made a Page with all the information!
These cookies are really great because they are so easy. The chocolate goes wonderfully with the almonds! I hope my daughter likes them!

Notes
They will keep in a tin, well-sealed, for about 1-2 weeks. (I’m sure mine won’t last that long when my Cookie Monster arrives!)
