PREHEAT OVEN TO 350F. Cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Stir
in flour alternately with cream, then mix in almonds. Drop teaspoons of
batter 3-inches apart on greased and floured baking sheets. With a knife
dipped in cold water, spread the batter into 2-inch rounds. Bake for 12
minutes. Cool 1-or-2 minutes on baking sheets then transfer to wire racks.
If cookies become hard to remove, return to the oven for 1-or-2 minutes to
soften. Melt chocolate with butter and cool slightly. Spread over bottoms
of cookies.
