Ingredients

  • 0.7 cup almonds finely chopped
  • teaspoon double-acting baking powder 
  • 0.8 cup brown sugar 
  • cup confectioners' sugar 
  •  eggs 
  • cups flour all-purpose
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground allspice 
  • teaspoon ground cinnamon 
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground cloves 
  • teaspoon ground ginger 
  • teaspoon ground pepper black
  • teaspoons juice of lemon 
  • teaspoons water 
  • 0.8 cup sugar white

Equipment

  • bowl
  • baking sheet
  • oven
  • toothpicks

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Grease several baking sheets.
  2. Beat the eggs, white sugar, and brown sugar in a bowl until the sugar has dissolved, then beat in lemon juice, almonds, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, black pepper, allspice, and cloves until thoroughly combined.
  3. Mix in flour to make a sticky dough.
  4. Turn the dough out onto a well-floured work surface, and knead the dough 1 to 2 minutes, adding more flour if needed, to make a smooth, workable dough. Pinch off pieces of dough and roll them into balls about 1 1/2 inches in diameter, and place the balls on the prepared baking sheets at least 1 inch apart.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cookie comes out clean, about 25 minutes.
  6. Remove from sheets immediately to cooling racks to prevent cookies from getting too hard.
  7. Stir together confectioners' sugar and water to make a glaze, and drizzle each cookie while slightly warm with about 1/2 teaspoon, spreading it around the top of the cookie.
