    Yah loh, perhaps our oven tempt is too hot, that's why it became brown instead ;P

    For this recipe, can I use butter instead of corn oil?

    鲸鱼,
    你的杏仁酥比较漂亮白皙,我的确是褐色啊 =(

    Love Melody,
    I believe it can be done. However, I did not use better in almond cookies before, so I am not sure how it will taste. Perhaps you can try out & let me know ;)

    Jackie,
    Thanks for your kind words =)

    I also made this! Looks like Jess's recipe is kinda infectious! LOL

    Mine showed quite a bit of crackling unlike yours which looked more or less intact. :(

    Travellingfoodies,

    Perhaps your oven tempt is too hot resulting in the cracks.. My oven is too hot as well resulting in the cookies turning brown instead of whitish like Jess :)
