Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven 325F. Line baking sheet with silicone baking mat or parchment paper. In a small mixing bowl, whisk egg white, salt, vanilla extract and sugar until foamy. Whisk until sugar is completely dissolved. Whisk in flour until no lumps. Then, gently fold in almond slices and butter.
- 2. Spoon 1 to teaspoon of batter onto prepared baking sheet and spread batter into a 2 to 3-inch circle. Make sure the almonds flakes are not overlapping each other. Spoon the rest of the batter on baking sheet with each cookie at least 1-inch apart. Might need to bake cookies in batches.
- 3. Bake 9 to 12 minutes depending on their size, rotate baking sheet once during baking. Bake until slightly golden brown. Remove from baking sheet and cool completely on wire rack. Cookies will crisp up once completely cool.
THIN, CRISP ALMOND COOKIES
Very thin and especially crisp. The dough must be chilled at least 4 hours prior to baking or it can be made a day ahead and refrigerated overnight. Turbinado sugar, like brown sugar but paler and dryer, gives these cookies a golden color and crunch and can be found in the baking aisle of most supermarkets. Adapted from "Sweet Miniatures".

CRISPY ALMOND BUTTER THINS (COOKIES)
Crispy, buttery and so delicious! -- plan ahead the dough needs to chill for a minimum of 3 hours or up to 3 days --- the success of this cookie will depend on the quality of butter that you use so purchase the best! Since the dough is very thick I suggest to use a stand mixer for mixing --- for *CHRISTMAS* coat in coloured sugar, also haven't tried it as yet but I plan on adding in some finely chopped candied maraschino cherries or dried fruit to the cookie batter for Christmas, so you might want to give that a try! --- servings is only estimated.

Steps:
- Using a heavy duty stand mixer cream butter with sugar and almond extract on medium speed until well combined (about 5 minutes or until no sugar granules should remain).
- Beat in egg yolks until combined.
- In a small bowl combine the flour with salt until combined; add to the creamed mixture and mix on low speed until combined.
- Remove to a surface and work the dough using with clean hands until smooth.
- Divide the dough evenly in half.
- Shape into two logs, wrap in waxed paper or plastic wrap and chill for minimum 3 hours or until very hard.
- Set oven to 350°F.
- Set oven rack to second-lowest position.
- Unwrap the dough log then slice into about 1/4-inch slices (the thinner that you slice these the crispier they will be when they bake).
- Place onto lightly greased baking sheet.
- Bake until lightly browned around the edges (about 12-15 minutes, the cookies will not be crispy if you under bake them).
- Cool slightly on baking sheet (the cookies will harden even more upon sitting) then coat in sugar.
