1 TB vanilla extract

pinch of salt

1 c. finely ground blanched almonds

Heat oven to 375 degrees. Lightly grease baking sheets. Roll 1/4 of dough into a 12" rope, cut into 12 one inch pieces. Shape each piece into a 3" log, tapering the ends and bend into cresents; place 1" apart on baking sheet. Bake 12-15 minutes. Cool until warm then roll in confectioner's sugar. Set on racks and sift remaining sugar over cookies. Makes 4 dozen cookies.

LOL No don't slap yourself I was thinking about what I wanted to make for the holidays also. I think it has something to do with the hot weather. LOL
