3 cups ground almonds
1 cup sugar
1/2 pound unsalted butter (2 sticks)
2 cups unbleached allpurpose flour

1 tablespoon water

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Combine ground almonds and sugar. Blend
in butter. Add dry ingredients. Add water and blend well. Shape into a
flattened ball. Wrap in parchment and chill at least 1/2 hour. Roll
out onto lightly floured board until approximately 1/4-inch thick. Cut
into desired shapes, and place on parchment covered baking sheet about
2 inches apart. Bake until golden brown. Cool. Sandwich with strained
or seedless jam (raspberry is great!) or chocolate ganache.
