- 1/2 cup finely ground almonds
- 1 1/4 cups sifted all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cup confectioners' sugar
- 2 tablespoons instant coffee powder
- 1 teaspoon Coffee and Chocolate Spice
- 3/4 cup butter, softened

In large bowl combine almonds, flour, confectioners' sugar, coffee and Coffee and Chocolate Spice. Cut in the butter and mix together until well blended. Shape dough into a ball, wrap in foil or plastic and refrigerate for at least half an hour. On lightly floured surface roll chilled dough to about 1/4 inch thickness. Cut with 2 inch cookie cutter. Place cookies 1 inch apart on ungreased cookie sheet and sprinkle tops with granulated sugar. Bake 10-12 minutes in a preheated 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) oven or until edges are just firm. Remove from sheet. Cool cookies on wire rack.
