Dutch almond deliciousness

A favorite among 4 Seasons customers, Dutch Almond cookies are crunchy and not too sweet. Agi and Aaron Groff shared the recipe with Gut Check...

Dutch Almond Cookies
1-1/2 sticks butter
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup sugar
6 tbsp water
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp ginger

Melt butter in a small saucepan.

Add the sugars and water and bring mixture to a boil.

In a separate bowl, combine dry ingredients. Add wet ingredients, then the almonds. Spread the mixture into a greased 9-by-9-inch pan and let set in refrigerator overnight.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Cut dough into thirds and then into 1/4-inch slices. Place on sheet pan and bake 15 to 20 minutes.
