Recipe Introduction
This delicate rolled cookie has become a classic for serving with after-dinner coffee and tea.
List of Ingredients
nonstick cooking spray
2/3 cup blanched almonds
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup butter (1 stick)
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons milk
Recipe
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray large cookie sheet with nonstick cooking spray. In food
processor with knife blade attached or in blender at medium speed, blend almonds and sugar until
almonds are finely ground.
2. In 10-inch skillet over low heat, cook almond mixture, butter, flour, and milk (do not use margarine
because it separates from sugar during cooking), stirring, until butter melts and mixture is blended. Keep
mixture warm over very low heat. Drop 1 heaping teaspoon mixture onto cookie sheet. Repeat to make 3
more cookies, about 2 inches apart. (Do not place more than 4 on cookie sheet, because after baking they
must be shaped quickly before hardening.) Bake 5 minutes or until golden.
3. Remove cookie sheet from oven and let cool about 1 minute to set cookies slightly. With pancake
turner, loosen and turn cookies over, one by one, and quickly roll around handle of wooden spoon. (If
cookies get too hard to roll, reheat in oven a minute to soften.) Cool cookies on wire rack. Repeat until all
batter is used, greasing cookie sheet each time. Store cookies in tightly covered container.
