For a deeper, richer flavor, use dark brown sugar instead of light brown sugar. Toast the almonds lightly before chopping to enhance their nutty flavor. A pinch of cayenne pepper can be added for an extra kick. If the dough is too sticky to roll, chill it in the refrigerator for 30 minutes before shaping. Dust the finished cookies with powdered sugar for a festive touch. Experiment with different spices! Nutmeg, cloves, or anise can be wonderful additions.
