These cookies are seriously ADDICTING! “Pink Sweeties” are pink and white almond swirl cookies that are melt in your mouth delicious. They are probably my favorite cookie recipe ever!

When we were little, my mom would take my sister and me on weekend trips – bed and breakfasts or camping.  On one B&B weekend in Texas, we discovered this amazing cookie.  I don’t know how many pink sweeties I ate that weekend, but it was well into the double digits.  My mom got the recipe from the B&B owner, and we’ve been making these cookies ever since.  I thought I would share them now, just in time for Valentine’s Day.

    I made these today and they are very tasty-especially if you’re a fan of almond flavor!

    Almond favor is a huge weakness of mine. I will be making these!

    These look great. How many does this recipe yield? Baking for a susan g komen event at my office and will need about 6 dozen.

    I would like to flavor these with strawberry. Would I leave out the almond extract?

    These came out so deliciously well but the batter was VERY sticky, even after I chilled it over night because I ran out of time to continue baking…. Do you possibly know why it’s so sticky?
