SWEEDISH BROOMSTICK COOKIES image

Categories     Cookies

Yield 12 Cookies

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 c. sugar
1/4 c. sifted flour
1/2 c. butter
2/3 c. finely diced blanched almonds (3 oz. package)
2 tbsp. light cream
Brooms

Steps:

  • Wash a broom handle and suspend it between two chairs. Preheat oven to 375. Grease baking sheet and dust it lightly with flour. Melt butter in a saucepan and add other ingredients. Cook the mixture over medium-high heat until it bubbles, stirring so it doesn't burn. Remove the mixture from the heat and stir it briskly for a few seconds. Drop teaspoonfuls onto the baking sheet, 4 inches apart. Bake three to four minutes, until the cookies turn brown at the edges. Cool 1 1/2 minutes on the baking sheet. Remove each cookie carefully with a spatula, and immediately drape it over the broomstick. Leave the cookies in place until they're cool and crisp, roughly two minutes, then gently transfer them to a plate.
