• Plain Flour - 2/3 cup
• Corn flour - 2 tbsps
• Almond meal - 1/2 cup (ground almonds)
• Butter - 1/3 cup OR 5 1/2 tbsps, softened
• Powdered sugar - 1/3 cup
• Salt - 1/4 tsp
• Baking powder - 1/2 tsp

Sift plain flour, corn flour, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
Beat the butter and sugar till light and fluffy.

Add almond meal and the sifted flour mixture and make a soft dough.

Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for a few minutes.

Remove and roll out the dough to 1/2" thickness and use a cookie cutter to cut out the cookies.

Place an almond on top of each cut out cookie.

Place them on an aluminum foil lined baking sheet and bake in a pre heated oven at 170C for 18 to 20 mts.

Check from 15 mts onwards. The underside of the cookie should turn into a light golden brown shade.

Remove from oven and place to cool on a wire rack.

Once cool, store in air tight container.
