2 minutes. Remove from the mixer and gradually fold in the flours. The dough will be quite soft; refrigerate for 10 minutes. Preheat oven to

275 degrees. Shape dough into diamond-shaped cakes about 1-inch wide and 1/2-inch thick. Place on an ungreased cookie sheet about 1/2-inch apart. Place an almond on the top of each cookie and bake for 35 to 40 minutes. They will be very fragile, so allow them to cool for 1 hour on the tray. This recipe yields

2 dozen cookies.
