Recipe Instructions:

1 cup (256 grams) unsweetened almond butter
1 cup (200 grams) granulated sugar
1 large egg
Flaky salt (optional)

Directions
Heat the oven to 350°F. Line two cookie sheets with parchment or silicone mats.
Combine the almond butter, sugar, and egg in a bowl and mix until smooth and thick. Use a tablespoon-size cookie scoop to drop heaping tablespoons of dough onto a plate. Sprinkle with flaky salt if you’re using it, then pop in the freezer for about 15 minutes to firm up.
Transfer the cookie dough blobs to the baking sheets, spreading out about an inch apart (you might have to bake a couple rounds). Bake for about 14 minutes, rotating halfway through, until the edges are just starting to brown and the tops are crackly.
It’s so important you let these cool completely before trying—that’s the only way you’ll get the contrast between a crisp crust and fudgy middle.
