Chewy Almond Cookies image

My children and grandchildren adore these old-fashioned cookies, and they make a good unfrosted choice for a holiday cookie plate. But they're wonderful year-round, too—I even keep unbaked dough in my freezer so I can whip up a batch whenever my family comes for a visit. —Betty Speth, Vincennes, Indiana

I had some trouble with the dough being too sticky. I had to add more flour to get it to the right consistency.

These cookies are a bit too sweet for my taste, but they're still good. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.
