Sliced Almond Cookie

The almonds will keep almost forever in the freezer....
 
This recipe was developed by a friend of mine and I am not sure if it is in the archives...it is worth repeating.  You can use it all year, but it will also work for Pesach.  It is delicious and EASY, my kind of recipe...
 
MM: Sliced Almond Cookie
---------- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.05
 
      Title: SLICED ALMOND COOKIE
Categories: Passover, Cookies
      Yield: 15 Cookies
 
      1    Egg whites
    1/3 c  Sugar
      1 c  Sliced almonds
          Chocolate bits; for topping
 
  Recipe by: Evelyne Johnson
 
  Preheat the oven to 300. Line a cookie sheet with
  parchment paper. Stir together the egg white and sugar
  (I don't even use a mixer) and then stir in the
  almonds. Drop by teaspoon (they shouldn't be more than
  2 inches in diameter) and top with a chocolate chip.
  Bake about 20 minutes until lightly browned. When you
  remove from the oven mash down the choc bit (it makes
  it look like a dab of icing) and let it cool before
  removing from sheet.
 
  I use the same ingredients in the food processor and
  make balls out of the dough  just over an inch in
  diameter. I flatten them slightly by pushing down «
  drained maraschino cherry on top.
 
  I usually do double the recipe.  I make these all year
  because they're so simple to make, everybody loves
  them AND they are good for Pesach.
