TOSCABOARD (SWEDISH ALMOND COOKIES)
This recipe came from an October 1986 article in Bon Appetit by Lena Cederham Birnbaum. They make a really nice addition to a dessert table or a coffee party and are best served the same day they're baked. The recipe is long but not hard to make. I've searched the net looking for this recipe and have found nothing other than some other people also searching so hopefully posting it here will help other lost souls like me who misplaced this great recipe.
