    I love these cookies. I've made these for over thirty years but
    won't make them this year-I will buy yours and send out for
    xmas presents. The only difference in my old Betty Crocker receipe was chopped Pecans or Walnuts.
    The Almond Butter cookies taste like macoroons.. Yum!

    At Christmastime, I make a Mexican version of these too, with blanched, ground almonds. To die for. :)

    I love this cookie - it's one of my favorites. I always make hundreds of them at Christmas as part of my gift boxes to friends, family and neighbors. I love the chopped hazelnuts here, but I have also been known to pulse pecans in the food processor to get a super-coarse pecan meal for this recipe. They're great...you get a big high 5 from me. :) Vickie
