Gingerbread

Some of the ingredients should be chopped smaller for a slightly more smooth texture. The "cookies" seem to have held the shape, so dough consistency was about right. Blanche those decorative almonds! Just pour some boiling water over the almonds and after 30 seconds you can remove the brown skin. In any case, taste is more important than looks!

The centers were very smooth, but the bigger nut hunks "floated" to the top. They are so amazingly light - folks wouldn't believe there is no flour.

I like the almond skins for roughage but yeah they could be more pretty nekid. You are right - these are very tasty little devils.

I'm eating a gingerbread cookie right now. My wife's recipe calls for a little whisky in the mix. Darn good gingerbread!
