3 Cups All-Purpose Flour
2 teas. Watkins Baking Powder
1/2 teas. Salt
4 Eggs, slightly beaten
1 Cup Sugar
1/2 Cup Butter, melted
2 teas. Watkins Vanilla Extract
1 1/2 teas. Watkins Almond Extract
3/4 Cup Finely Chopped Blanched Almonds
Combine flour, baking powder and salt; set aside. Beat together the eggs, sugar and melted butter; add extracts. Add flour mixture, one third at a time; mixing thoroughly each time. Fold in almonds. Spread half of the dough onto cookie sheet to form a 12x3x1 1/2 inch loaf. Repeat with remaining dough. Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes or just until starting to brown around edges; cool 10 minutes. Remove loaves from sheed and place on cutting board. Cut across the loaf into slices 1/2 inch thick. Lay cookies cut side down on the cookie sheet and return to oven for 12 minutes. Turn cookies over and bake an additional 5 to 10 minutes or dry until crisp.
Don't forget to try it with other Watkins extracts and flavors. The possibilities are endless. Enjoy!
