Ingredients: –
- 1 cup butter, softened
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 egg (beaten)
- 1 teaspoon almond extract
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup sliced almonds

Let’s get Baking!
- Preheat your oven to 325 Degree Celsius.
- Mix butter with the sugar and cream them in a large bowl.
- Add in the beaten egg and almond extract.
- In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking soda and salt; gradually add this to the creamed mixture to form a dough.
- Roll the dough into 1 inch-sized balls. Place each ball about 2 inches apart on ungreased baking sheets.
- For a nice roasted almond finish (like in the photo above), flatten each ball with a fork and sprinkle some almonds on top!
- Beat the egg white together with the water, then brush this mixture lightly over each cookie and they are ready for the oven!
- Bake at 160°C for about 14-16 minutes or until edges and bottoms are lightly browned.
- Let the cookies cool for 2 minutes before removing them from pans onto wire racks.
- When they are sufficiently cooled, you can pack them into tiny airtight bottles where they will stay crunchy and good for at least 3 months!
