A friend gave me this recipe upon request after an international potluck. Don't know how authentic these are. But I do know that they sure are good.
Ingredients:
2 cups plain flour
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 cup butter, softened
1 cup brown sugar, packed
1 teaspoon vanilla essence
1 egg yolk
1 egg white, slightly beaten
1/4 cup white sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
3/4 cup sliced almonds
Directions:
1. Sift together flour, and salt in small bowl. Set aside.
2. In a mixer bowl; beat butter on medium speed for 30 seconds, then add brown sugar and vanilla essence; beat until fluffy.
3. Add egg yolk and beat just until combined.
4. Stir flour mixture into brown sugar/butter mixture with a spoon, mix well.
5. Pat this batter evenly in an ungreased 15 x10 x1 baking pan and brush top of dough with beaten egg white.
6. Combine white sugar and cinnamon; sprinkle evenly over egg white. Sprinkle almonds over all.
7. Bake in a 350 degrees F. oven for 15-18 minutes.
