  • Arrange the 24 shortbread cookies in a single layer on a serving platter or baking sheet.
  • Divide the 1/2 cup Nutella evenly among the 24 cookies (about 1 teaspoon per cookie). Use a butter knife or small spatula to spread each portion in the center of a cookie.
  • Slice the 2 bananas into rounds.
  • Distribute the banana slices across the Nutella-topped cookies so the banana is used up evenly.
  • Sprinkle the 1/4 cup chopped almonds evenly over all the cookies.
  • Serve immediately.

This little cookie comes from my friend
Cynthia Nim's
Gourmet Game Night
cookbook, which makes a perfect gift for friends who enjoy hosting game nights, from mah-jong, Poker, Scrabble to Wii, Guesstures and Spin the Bottle (okay, uhnevermind, if you're playing spin the bottle, you prob will be drinking instead of eating). Cynthia calls these cookies "Nutella & Banana Galettes" and she even has a recipe for home made shortbread.
