I made with 1 3/4 cups of sugar in the batter and added an almond flavored confectioners glaze while warm instead of the sprinkled sugar. Big hit!

Made for family at Christmas. I had to make it twice and everyone wants the recipe. I put the almonds on top of the dough, pressed them in a bit, then put on the sugar. That way the almonds don't fall off.

These are amazing! I "discovered" the recipe about a month ago: and I have made them five or 6 times! Yummy! Everyone I shared them with has raved and asked for the recipe.I also like that the star of the show: the almond paste - has a long shelf life - so you can make them anytime!
