Notas
Tradicionalmente, las almendras se añaden a esta receta ya sea colocando una dentro de cada galleta (enrollando la masa alrededor de la almendra para que esté dentro), o usando harina de almendras (ver comentarios a continuación). Los preferimos sin almendras, así que ajústelos en consecuencia.
* Asegúrese de azotar realmente la mantequilla. ¡Este es un paso importante!
**Las galletas en sí no se volverán doradas.
