So I made these, mine didn't turn out flat and I think the reason for that is the time you let it cool. The colder the dough is, the less it will spread and get flat. I just made minor changes, instead of using almond extract I used pure bourbon vanilla extract, brown sugar, brown butter, and soy milk. And unfortunately I didn't have a lemon :( Overall they turned out great! Hey there!

I ground my own almonds into almond meal - Is it possible that grinding almonds into almond meal produces more oils in the recipe that using store bought almond meal?

My cookies were also flat, but yummy! I chilled them for 30 min. and My baking powder was fresh and I also used whole wheat pastry flour, perhaps that's why they were flat. Thanks for sharing!

I've always had good luck with this recipe. Having the dough well-chilled when you drop them on the cookie sheet makes a difference in the rise (warmer dough will spread more and cause the cookies to be flatter), as well as fresh baking powder. I once made a batch with some baking powder that was more than a few months old and the cookies came out much flatter. Maybe give those suggestions a try and see if makes a difference! <strong><em>UPDATE:</em></strong> Also, check to make sure you used the currently displayed copy of the recipe. During the publishing a prior version went up briefly that only called for 1/2 cup of flour and 1/2 cup almond meal. This might have been the problem if you had the earlier recipe with the typo!! If that was the case, do try it again and let me know how it works out! Michele — I’m sorry to hear that the cookies didn’t turn out quite right for you. I’ve always had good luck with this recipe.
