2/3 c Ground rice or rice flour (available at specialty stores)
2 T Ground almonds
1/4 c Sugar
1 Egg white, lightly beaten
2 T Clear honey
3 Drops almond extract
12 Split blanched almonds

Set the oven to 325F.

Mix the rice, ground almonds, and sugar. Thoroughly beat in the egg white, honey, and almond essence. Line a cookie sheet with waxed paper. Place teaspoons of the mixture well apart on the paper, and press a split almond on top of each.
