Fun Food Holidays™ April 9th is National Chinese Almond Cookie Day

These delicate, golden cookies provide a subtle-sweet taste to contrast with some of the spicier Chinese cuisine. Forget your fortune; these particular cookies have blanched almond slivers in them, which are far tastier than little slips of paper!
