List of Ingredients




1-1/4 cups all purpose flour
1/3 cup unblanched almonds, finely chopped
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 cup butter at room temperature
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp almond extract
1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate morsels, for drizzling
confectioners sugar for garnish


Recipe



Heat oven to 350F.Lightly grease a large cookie sheet. Stir together flour, almonds & salt. Beat together the butter, sugar, vanilla & almond extract until creamy & smooth. Stir in flour mixture. Divide the dough into 4 equal balls. On greased cookie sheet, pat or roll each ball to 1/2" round. Smooth edges. Press with tines of fork all around the edges if desired. Cut each round into 6 equal wedges but do not pull apart. Bake in oven for 12-14 minutes or until lightly browned on edges. While still hot, re-cut wedges & remove to a wire rack to cool completely. Melt chocolate morsels in a small bowl in microwave. Drizzle over the wedges. Sprinkle evenly with confectioners sugar. Store in airtight container. You can re-dust with confectioners sugar before serving.
