1 cup butter, softened 3/4 cup packed brown sugar 2 teaspoons vanilla extract 2 cups all-purpose flour 6 squares (1 ounce each) white baking chocolate 1-1/4 cups chopped almonds
In a large mixing bowl, cream butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in vanilla. Gradually add flour. Shape 1/2 cupfuls of dough into 1/2-in. thick logs. Cut logs into 2-in. pieces. Place 2 in. apart on ungreased baking sheets. Bake at 325° for 15-17 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove to wire racks to cool. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt white chocolate at 50% power, stir until smooth. Dip one end of each cookie into chocolate, then into almonds. Place on waxed paper to set.
