JAN HAGEL-DUTCH ALMOND COOKIE

The recipe came from my husband's grandma, or Beppe. She knew they were my favourite, so every time we went to their house, she would make sure that she had some on hand and then send some home with me! I am lucky in that she shared her recipe with me, too. They are remarkably quick to make and to disappear.
