These date back to 'cultures day' at Shawnee Park Elementary School in Grand Rapids, Michigan. The ingredients are mostly a standard sugar cookie, but make sure you have enough almond extract and almonds on hand when you start.
Stir together:
2-3/4 cups all purpose flour
1 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
Cut in 1 cup crisco like you would for a pie crust.
Mix seapartely
1 egg
2 tablespoons mild
1 teaspoon almond extract
Add to flour mixture. Mix well.
Shape dough into 1-inch balls. Place 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheet. Press a blanched almond half on to each cookie, press down to flatten slightly.
Bake in 325 degree oven, 16 minutes
