Almond cookies
Almond cookies feature nutty, buttery flavors with light sweetness that pairs beautifully with dessert wines offering complementary honeyed notes or contrasting acidity. The nutty qualities in the cookies find harmony with malty, nut-forward beers that echo the almond character while providing enough complexity to enhance the pairing.
