As it is, I must get some out of the house so that I don't eat them all. Wonder how they freeze. I enjoyed baking these this afternoon and noted only one small error that was not enough to put me off. You describe the almond extract as almond "flour" at one point. I even enjoyed practicing my piping skills, which need some serious practice. Thanks again for this recipe, Susan.
