we had a friend from New York to stay with us in Scotland for 4 days over Christmas and she made the most amazing almond cookies for us on boxing day. She bought most of the ingredients with her, but security in America wouldn't allow her to bring the white fat. I think it was called crisco??? Anyway, she substituted butter on the day(Lurpak), and swears she wont use anything else back home
My problem is... She forgot to leave the recipe. I think it may be a Chinese recipe. (she's Chinese American) And i want to be able to make them again very soon. (She'l be home tomorrow, but straight back to work and i dont like to bother her.)
All i know about the recipe is that she used 1lb of butter and 4 tbs of almond extract.Plain flour and caster sugarAmmounts???? And she put slivered almonds on top before they went in the oven
If anyone can help me, thank you in advance. i've been raving about these cookies to friends who'l be here on Hogmanay and I'd love to make them
