Recipe by: Baking for Gift Giving, Lisa Yockelson
Preheat oven to 350 degrees; line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper.
Sift together the flours and salt. Cream the butter in the large bowl of
an electric mixer on low speed for 5 minutes. Add the sugar in two
additions, beat for 2 minutes on moderate speed after each portion is
added. Blend in the vanilla extract. On low speed, add the sifted mixture
and mix until the particles of flour are absorbed. Stir in the toffee and
almonds. For each batch, drop heaping tablespoon-size mounds of dough onto
a lined cookie sheet, spacing the mounds about 2 inches apart. Bake for 15
minutes, or until golden. After 1 minute, transfer the cookies to cooling
racks using a wide metal spatula. Cool completely. Store in an airtight
container.
