Ingredients:

Serving

2 cups flour
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp cream of tartar
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground ginger
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
1/4 tsp ground cloves
1 cup brown sugar
4 oz chopped almonds
1/2 cup chilled butter, cut into small pieces
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1/4 cup port wine
1 egg white, beaten

Directions:

Combine the flour, baking soda, cream of tartar, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, ground cloves, brown sugar, and almonds in a large bowl.
Add the butter and cut into the flour mixture.
Add the beaten eggs and red wine and mix dough together vigorously until it can be formed into a ball.
Preheat oven to 350°F.
On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough into a rough circle about 1/4 thick.
With a cookie cutter, cut the dough into 2-inch rounds.
Arrange the rounds about 1 inch apart on a buttered cookie sheet.
Continue cutting cookies, then brush each gently with the egg white.
Bake for 15 minutes, until golden brown.
Remove to a rack to cool completely.
