Directions
1. Preheat the oven to 350-degrees.
2. Once preheated, toss chopped almonds on a baking sheet and roast them for 3 to 5 minutes. Set aside to cool.
3. Beat butter, 1/2 cup powdered sugar and vanilla in a large bowl.
4. Add flour to butter mixture in increments, mixing until combined after each addition. After, stir in the toasted almonds a little at a time.
5. Roll cookie dough into 1" balls, placing them on a non-stick baking sheet. Bake until the bottom edges of the cookies begin to brown (about 15 minutes).
6. Let the cookies cool for 5 minutes, then roll them in the remaining 1/2 cup powdered sugar. After, place them on a wire rack to completely cool.
7. Once cooled, drizzle your caramel of choice over the tops.
