This is my mom's recipe. We only make it at Christmas as a special treat. It is well worth the wait each year. We usually double or triple this recipes as it does not make alot.
Ingredients:
3 tablespoons confectioners' sugar, plus more for rolling cookies in
1/2 cup butter
1 cup flour
1 cup almonds, finely chopped
1 egg yolk
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Cream butter and sugar. Add egg yolk and flour. Finally add the nuts.
3. Shape into crescents about 2 long.
4. Bake on greased cookies sheet for 20 minutes.
5. Cool on cookie sheet. When cooled enough to handle roll in confectioners sugar and place on cooling rack.
