 Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
  1      c             Flour
    1/2  c             Sugar -- or more
    1/2  c             Cocoa
  2      ts            Raspberry, orange, or almond
                       - flavoring
  2                    Eggs -- or equivalent
    3/4  ts            Baking powder
    1/4  ts            Salt
                       Splash liquor (Chambord)
                       Semisweet chocolate -- Melted
                       - (optional)

 Combine flour, sugar, cocoa, salt, and baking baking powder.
 Separately, mix flavoring and eggs. Combine. Add splash of liquor
 or water as needed to have a sticky consistency. If the mixture is
 too stiff, it won't spread out properly. Put this glob on a greased
 cookie sheet and arrange it into a log about 15" long and 1-1/2 to
 2" wide. Bake at 350°F for 25 minutes. Remove from oven, let cool a
 few minutes, then slice diagonally into 1/2 to 3/4" slices. I got
 18 pieces from mine. Place the slices on their side and put back in
 the oven (300°F) for 15 minutes. Turn over and cook another 10 to
 15 minutes. If you can afford the fat, a small drizzle of semisweet
 chocolate is wonderful on these when cooled. I used about 2 tb for
 all the cookies, which added about 6 g fat to the recipe or 1/3 g
 fat each one.
