Gradually add the dry ingredients. Roll out dough between two pieces of wax paper until ¼" in thickness. Carefully remove the top sheet of wax paper. Cut into shapes with cookie cutters and place on a cookie sheets about 1-1/2" apart. Brush tops with beaten egg. Place a few almond slivers on the top of each cookie.

Comments:
Lauren says: This cookie was difficult to make but worth it. It isn’t as sweet as American cookies, so the taste is hard to get used to if you’re not European. Overall, I’d give it three stars.
