It's time for 12 Days of Cookies, Food Network's annual virtual cookie swap. Each day, visit us here on FN Dish for a peek at new holiday cookies, party-planning tips and top techniques for rolling, spooning, slicing, baking and decorating delicious sweet treats to give — or keep — from your favorite Food Network chefs

This cookie was crafted just for you. When Food Network asked fans to weigh in on their dream holiday cookie, chocolate and almonds were ingredients in the most popular picks. These treats are reminiscent of everyone's favorite peanut-butter blossom cookies — a little more grown-up, thanks to almond butter, but just as addictive. They stay fresh and delicious refrigerated in an airtight container.
