Yield Makes 32 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 cup blanched whole almonds (3 oz)
1 cup all-purpose flour
5 tablespoons superfine granulated sugar
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder (preferably Dutch-process)
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
Confectioners sugar for dusting

Steps:

  • Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 375°F. Pulse almonds with flour, granulated sugar, cocoa, cinnamon, and salt in a food processor until very finely chopped. Add butter and pulse just until a dough forms.
  • Press dough evenly into an ungreased 9-inch square baking pan with your fingers. Cut dough into 16 squares with a sharp knife, then cut squares diagonally to make a total of 32 triangles.
  • Bake until cookies are dry to the touch, 15 to 17 minutes. Transfer pan to a rack and run a thin knife around edge of pan to loosen cookies while hot. Recut hot cookies into triangles, then cool completely in pan. Dust with confectioners sugar just before serving.
