1 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
3/4 cup egg beaters egg substitute or 3 large eggs
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup chopped almonds

3. Slice 1/4 inches thick and bake on sheet [leave 2 inches in between].
4. Bake at 375F for 5 to 12 minutes [check the cookies].
5. Cool on sheet for a couple minutes and then remove to wire racks.
6. If you want to make the classic version lose the modern ingredients. The original would have prob used lard but -.
7. Amount of servings vary depending on cookie lovers hunger. If I am feeding the brother in law [a cookie monster], two nephews and two nieces plus sis [not a cookie fan] it makes for 10 people and the cookie monster don't share. Feel free to add your amount in review. I never actually counted the cookies.
