Bess Gallanis Hayes of Winnetka, Illinois won an honorable mention in the
1996 Chicago Tribune Annual Holiday Cookie Contest with these Greek almond
shortbread cookies. 1. Heat oven to 350'F. Spread almonds in single layer
on baking sheet. Bake, stirring occasionally, until lightly toasted, about
10 minutes. Remove from oven; cool, then chop coarsely. 2. Beat butter in
large bowl of electric mixer on medium-high speed until very light and
fluffy, 5 minutes. Add 3 tablespoons of the confectioners' sugar; continue
beating 3 minutes. 3. Add egg yolks, Cognac and vanilla; beat until smooth.
Beat in almonds, flour and baking powder until mixed well. (If dough is too
soft to handle, add additional flour.) 4. Shape scant tablespoons full of
dough between palms into round balls or crescents. Bake on ungreased baking
sheets until set and very pale golden in color; 15 minutes. Remove cookies
to cooling rack. 5. Place remaining confectioners' sugar into sifter. While
cookies are still hot, sift confectioners' sugar over tops. Repeat twice at
20-minutes intervals. A great recipe from: The Recipe Collector Web Page
