Italian almond cookies

These are nice and crispy with lots of flavor. Great with a cup of coffee or tea.

1/3 lb softened butter
1/2 c flour
1/3 c sugar
1 1/4 c ground almonds
1/4 tsp vanilla extract

Preheat oven to 350
The mixture will be very sandy.
1. Cream butter, vanilla and sugar in a mixing bowl.
2. Mix in almonds.
3. Gradually mix in the flour.
4. Roll out on a flat surface, try not to mix in too much flour.

Makes 1 - 1 1/2 dozen depending on the cut.
