Exactly what I was looking for. I used the small Papered Chef cookie scooper and baked for 8 minutes, which yielded 52. This will be a permanent addition to my Christmas Cookie list.

Cookies were very good...took about 15 min to bake. Also dough was very crumbly, but cookies came out delicous!

I am sorry but these "cookies" were terrible. Lack of sugar was most noticeable. I followed recipe to a "T" and was greatly disappointed and threw them in the trash.

These are pretty good, but really they could pass for sugar cookies. If I make them again I'll add more amaretto.

I thought this seemed to be a great recipe, but unfortunately, I was out of amaretto. Instead I used cointreu, and hazelnuts instead of almonds. The cookies tasted GREAT, I will definitely make them again.

I increased this recipe to make 100 servings and baked it this past weekend. I added just a little more Amaretto and a touch more sugar to the recipe. I cannot say enough about how wonderful these cookies turned out. My husband who is not a major sweet freak tried one and fell in love, because, aside from the confectioners' sugar on the outside, these are not super sweet cookies. They are just right. I will definitely be making more of these cookies in the future. A big hit!

Being a working mom of 3 boys and short on time, I made the dough (including the almonds) two days before I was going to bake the cookies. I double wrapped AND rubberbanded the bowl before refrigerating. Well, last night I took out the bowl and some little hands had taken off the rubberband and the plastic was barely on the bowl. I tried to make the dough into balls, but it was extremely dry and crumbly. Anyway, somehow I managed to get them into a ball and I threw them in the oven, not expecting much. Well, these babies BLOW AWAY all of the other cookies I have EVER made or tasted from others -- and I consider myself a cookie snob. In my book, this will be the cookie that all others are measured against. Michelle -- THANK YOU!!!

These are very tasty and buttery. I would use less salt, maybe just 1/2 t. I definitely added the almonds, made for a nice texture-flavor combo. Instead of just rolling the cookies in powdered sugar at the end, I made a glaze for them, as you might do for an anginetti, of powdered sugar with enough Amaretto for a glaze consistency.

Unfortunatley I made these before the staff made an adjustment of the ingredients. I will not try them again.

This recipe has been revised to list 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar in the ingredients list, which is creamed together with the butter in step 2 of the directions. An additional 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar is used for rolling. - The Staff

This cookie was horrible...it was the very first thing I've ever baked that DID NOT turn out. 4 cups of icing sugar to 2 1/2 cups of flour? One batch wasted and into the garbage. Never again. Please re-check your ingredients list!!!!!!!!!!!
