Directions
Almond Cookies, Posted for the Zaar World Tour-China. From the Chinese Cookery cookbook. I have not made this recipe yet, but have eaten cookies just like these at restaurants in San Francisco’s Chinatown., Great cookies and much better flavor then the ones I have had in restaurants. I made as written other then used 1/2 butter and 1/2 Crisco for the 1 cup shortening. Thanks for sharing the recipe. Made for your win in the football pool, congrats again!!
