LACEY ALMOND COOKIES

1/2 cup ground almonds
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 tbsp flour
2 tbsp milk

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Grease and flour cookie sheets; set aside.

In a 2-quart saucepan combine the almonds, butter, sugar, flour, and milk; cook over low heat until the butter is melted, stirring constantly.

Using a teaspoon, drop the dough onto the prepared cookie sheets putting only 4 to 6 cookies per sheet (depending on how big your cookie sheets are).

Bake cookies at 375 degrees for 6 minutes or until the cookies are light brown and the centers are bubbly.  Let stand on the cookie sheets for 1 minute.  Remove gently to a wire rack to cool completely.

Yield: 60 cookies
