  • Ground cinnamon for sprinkling

What to Do

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
     
  2. In a large bowl, combine butter, flour, granulated sugar, and almonds; blend well. Cover and chill dough in refrigerator until firm, at least 1 hour or overnight.
     
  3. With your hands, form dough into small balls then roll into cigar shapes. Place them on prepared baking sheets. Bake 15 minutes, or until golden.

Note

For more festive cookies, tint the dough with a few drops of red food color for Valentine's Day, green for St. Patrick's Day and, of course, a batch of each color for Christmas!

These would be great for a new baby....with little blue or pink strips of tinted frosting around the middle! Can't wait to try these out!
