ALMOND SUGAR COOKIES
It's a tradition in our house to start baking Christmas cookies early in the season and try some new recipes every year. These nutty, glazed, melt-in-your-mouth almond sugar cookies are one of my favorites. -Lisa Hummell, Phillipsburg, New Jersey

FROSTED ALMOND SUGAR COOKIES
I used to call this recipe "White Christmas Cookies" but changed the name because I was making them for all the holidays and for special occasions. Everyone in my family loves these cookies and they're always fighting over how many each other eats. The yield on these cookies depend upon the size cookie cutter used.
