This is the first time I tried making cookies. It was successful attempt! Hopefully will try some variations soon!!

Ingredients
1 cup wheat flour
3/4 cup ground almonds
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
dash of salt
1/2 cup butter, softened
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg white
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Method

  1. Stir together flour, ground almonds, baking powder, and salt; set aside.
  2. Stir flour and ground almond mixture into the creamed mixture. Mix with hands and make a dough. Cover with plastic wrap; chill for about 2 hours.
  3. Shape dough into small balls and place them in the cookie cutter, flatten slightly with the index finger. Place them 2 inches apart; Preheat oven at 200°. Bake for about 12 minutes, or until set but not browned.

**Makes about 3 dozen almond cookies.
