Finnish Cookies / Danish Finsk Broed

Interesting cookies! I found these to be a lot of work. I love to bake, however, I'm not as proficient as some Danes or Finns who make baked goods for the coffee table. My husband watched me make these and I have him to thank for putting the brakes on adding more water to make the dough more cooperative. He said he watched me add the butter and these looked like they should be a lot like shortbread cookies. When they were done we both thought they needed more sugar. These took me about 2 hours to make not including the hour's "resting" time! The 2 hours included skinning the almonds; I'm sure I'd go the pre-skinned route the next time simply because each almond has to be skinned individually -- I don't have a machine (or kids) to do it! I chose this recipe because not only is it somewhat related to Finland, I thought it would be quick to put together -- it isn't in my case. In my opinion this is an advanced baking recipe. Thanks, Deantini! Happily made for Newest Zaar Tag Game.
