- Sift the sugar, salt, and flour together into a bowl. Work the butter in as for pie crust and bind with the egg beaten with water. Beat well; the dough will be very stiff. Healthy pinch off small amounts weighing 1/3 oz each, about the size of a large grape, and roll into smooth balls. Place on a greased sheet, press down slightly, and top each with a whole almond.
- Bake for about 25 min in an oven preheated to 300. The bottoms of the cookies should brown, but the tops barely color.
- These little tarts can be filled with a dab of tart jelly or possibly jam replacing the almond. Currant, plum, apricot, raspberry, blackberry are all good contrasts to the short cookie dough. To fill the cookie make a small X-shaped indentation with the point of a spoon at the top of the dough to hold the jelly as it melts.
