Ingredients
2 cups (1 pound) butter
3/4 cup confectioners sugar
1/2 cup blanched almonds crushed very fine
1 egg yolk slightly beaten
1 jigger cognac or brandy
5 cups sifted flour
whole cloves
 

Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cream butter using a mixer or hand mixer until creamy and very light in color. Gradually beat in the sugar. Beat in egg yolk, cognac, almonds, and gradually blend in flour to make a soft dough. With floured hands shape the dough into one and one-half inch crescents or any shape you prefer. Put a whole clove in the center of each. Place on a cookie sheet and bake in 350 degree oven for fifteen minutes. Cool slightly and sift confectioners sugar over the cookies. NOTE- Do not let the cookies turn brown in the oven. They will be very light in color when they are baked. Also, it is better to sift the confectioners sugar onto a plate or wax paper, and then put cookies on to so you will coat the bottoms in sugar as well.
