Crunchy Cardamon Cookies. Swedish Cardamom cookies that are ultra buttery and crispy-crunchy, yet still light and airy. There is cinnamon in the recipe but cardamom is the star flavor. These are a family classic that we make every year.

But I'm bringing these cardamom chocolate chip cookies to the table anyway. This version is my perfect chocolate chip cookie. Chocolate-y, more on the salty side than the sweet side and fragrant with warming cardamom. You can have Crunchy Cardamon Cookies using 6 ingredients and 7 steps. Here is how you cook that.

I like to add a bit more cardamom, it's expensive, so not too much! I have a new favorite holiday cookie - YUMMY!! Please note: I am a huge cardamom fan. I used toasted hazelnuts rather than walnuts, but almonds would work well, too (as I am not a walnut person). In large bowl, mix together flour, baking soda, cinnamon and cardamon.
