Notes
Baking time differs for each oven so check accordingly and make this cookie.
Depending upon the thickness of the cookie the time taken will differ.
I have not removed the skin for almond have ground as such.
I have blanched almonds to remove skin for sliced almonds to spread on top.
It should be totally dry then you can slice and use.
You can substitute sugar with brown sugar.
