Almond Cookies can make an elegant gift.

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Cook Time: 25 minutes

Total Time: 40 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 2-1/2 cups flour
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 cup butter
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon almond extract
  • 1/4 pound whole, blanched almonds

Preparation:

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. In food processor - mix flour, sugar, butter, salt, and baking soda until it forms little balls. Add eggs and extract. Roll out* dough on floured surface. Cut with 2 1/2 inch cookie cutter. Put on greased cookie sheet. Place almond in center of each cookie. Bake for 25 minutes.

Lately instead of rolling, I've shaped the dough into 2-inch balls. Then I used a cookie press (dipped in flour) with a daisy shape. The almond seems to fit perfectly in the middle of the design.
