Crescent Cakes For Imbolc

Baking is appropriate for celebrating Imbolc, and we often make Crescent cakes for the end of our Imbolc ritual. Here is our circle's favorite recipe:

* 1 1/4 cups Flour
* 3/4 cup Sugar
* 1 cup Finely Ground Almonds
* 3 drops Almond Extract
* 1/2 cup Butter or Margarine, softened
* 1 tablespoon Honey
* 1 Egg Yolk

In a large mixing bowl, combine the first four ingredients. Add the butter, honey and egg yolk and mix together well. Cover with aluminum foil or plastic wrap, and then chill for 1 1/2 to 2 hours in the refrigerator.

When ready, pinch off pieces of the dough (about the size of plums) and shape them into crescents. Place the crescents on a well-greased cookie sheet and bake in a 325-degree preheated oven for approximately 20 minutes. This recipe yields 20 to 25 crescents.
