 Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
  1                    egg
    1/2  cup           sugar
    1/3  cup           finely chopped blanched/skinned almonds
    1/2  cup           all purpose flour

Instructions:
Preheat oven to 325F.  Beat egg lightly and gradually add sugar.  Beat
 with mixer until light and foamy--about 20 minutes.  Add almonds and
 flour; mix well.  Roll dough into finger-thick ropes on a very light
 floured surface.  Flatten slightly with fingertips and cut into 3 inch
 lengths and place on ungreased cookie sheets.  Bake in oven until light
 brown--about 10 minutes.  Remove from cookie sheets and cool completely
 before storing in airtight containers.  Stores 1 to 2 months.

 Makes 2 dozen cookies.
