This cookie is a Christmas favourite. I asked for the recipe and got this response from my sister-in-law.
Hey Kinzie Family:
Wishing you all a very happy Christmas, a prosperous New Year and all the best.
Aunt Ruth, here is the recipe for the almond cookies: (I remembered!!!)
2 cups flour
1 cup of butter
2 tsp. of vanilla
1/4 - 1/2 cup of icing sugar
1 tablespoon of water
1/2 cup of ground almonds
cream butter, vanilla and icing sugar, add water, flour and almonds. Mix well. Make into 1/2 moons and bake for 15 minutes at 325F. Roll in icing sugar while still warm. Enjoy.
Don't forget this is a basic recipe, sometimes you have to try it a couple of times to get it the way you like it.
Love Aunt Pat
