Method:
- Preheat thh oven to 375 degreed F/190 degrees C/Gas 5. Grease 1-2 baking sheets.
- With a sharp knife, chop the almonds as fine as possible. Alternatively, use a food processor, blender, or coffee grinder to chop the nuts very fine.
- Melt the butter in a saucepan over low heat. Remove from the heat and stir in the remaining ingredients and the almonds.
- Drop teaspoonfuls 2½ in (6 cm) apart on the prepared sheets. Bake until golden, about 5 minutes. Cool on the baking sheets briefly, just until the wafers are stiff enough to remove.
