My greatgrandmother emigrated from Kehl Germany back in 1883 and this cookie was an integral part of the 7 or 8 recipes handed down to me. It is my favorite. However, I would add this note: buy freshly shelled almonds, soak for an hour or so until plump. Peel the brown skin off and discard. Let nuts dry on paper towels and grind through an old fashioned (table top/clamp-on) grinder. This keeps the particles uniform in size and preserves the oil that gives the cookie it's flavor. My Mom handed down the recipes and none had mixing ingredients but I've made them in balls and 1 1/2 inch flat

This was a recipe given to my mother by her German mother-in-law and passed down to me and my daughter's. Grandma made them with ground almonds but we have perverted the recipe to make them with chopped walnuts for the crunch. Either way, they're absolutely delicious.
