How to Make Almond Chinese Chews
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and corn syrup. Stir constantly until the butter is melted and the sugars are dissolved.
- Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring frequently. Continue to boil for exactly 5 minutes, stirring constantly to prevent burning.
- Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract and almond extract.
- In a separate bowl, combine the flour, salt, and almonds. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Drop rounded tablespoons of the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each cookie.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool completely on the baking sheet before serving.
