Ingredients

5 Tbsp. margarine
1-1/2 Tbsp. fructose
1 Tbsp. egg white
1/4 tsp. almond, vanilla, or lemon extract
1 C. unbleached flour
1/8 tsp. baking soda
1 pinch cream of tartar
32 almond slices

Cooking Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In a medium bowl, combine margarine and fructose, beating until light and fluffy. Mix in egg white and almond extract. Gradually stir in flour, baking soda, and cream of tartar; mix well. Form into 1/2-inch balls. Place on a nonstick cookie sheet. Dip a flat-bottomed glass into flour and press down on each ball to flatten cookie. Top each cookie with an almond slice. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes until lightly browned. Transfer to parchment or wax paper to cool.
