I love almonds and when I saw this recipe, just had to try them. They are a really neat looking cookie with the almond slices. I wasn't quite sure what to expect with the little amount of flour and just the egg white. I feel it is missing something, such as salt and maybe more butter and vanilla for flavor. Thanks for sharing the recipe. Made for Photo Tag Game.
