    List of Ingredients




    6 Tbsp. butter, softened
    1 cup plus 2 Tbsp. superfine sugar
    3 eggs
    9 oz. almonds, blanched, peeled and chopped (about 2 1/4 cups)
    1/2 Tbsp. ground cinnamon
    pinch of salt
    3 cups flour, sifted
    1 egg yolk, lightly beaten

    Recipe



    Beat the butter with the sugar until white and creamy. Add one egg at a time, beating well, then add the almonds, cinnamon, a pinch of salt and finally the flour. Knead the dough well and shape it into a long rectangle about 1 1/2 inches thick and 2 1/2 to 3 inches wide. Refrigerate the dough for one hour, or until firm. Cut the rectangle cross-wise into 1/4 inch slices, place them on baking sheets and brush them with the egg yolk. Bake in a preheated 400 F. oven for 20 minutes, until just golden.

    Makes about 70.
