5 1/2 cups flour
3/4 cup grated unblanched almonds
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves

Heat honey until thin; do not boil. Mix in all other ingredients except icing. Turn onto floured board and knead until smooth, adding a little flour if necessary. Roll with a floured rolling pin to 1/2" thickness.
Grease and flour a baking sheet and lay rolled dough on it. Bake in preheated 350 degrees F oven about 20 minutes. Spread with icing while hot; cool before cutting into rectangles.
For Egg White Icing: Whip egg whites until they stand in stiff peaks. Add sugar and lemon and juice and continue beating until thick and glossy. Spread on cake or cookies with a spatula.
