  1. With an electric mixer, beat the butter in a mixing bowl until light and fluffy.
  2. Add the brown sugar and beat until smooth and creamy.
  3. Add the vanilla and blend well. Set aside.
  4. In a food processor, grind together the flour, almond meal, Teeccino and salt to obtain a well-blended meal.
  5. Add ½ cup of the flour mixture at a time to the butter mixture. Beat slowly until well blended.
  6. Using your hands, shape the dough into a long log about 2 inches in diameter. Or make multiple logs for different shapes! Wrap in parchment and freeze until firm (20-30 minute) or, preferably, refrigerate overnight.
  7. Cut dough into ¼ slices and place on 2 parchment-lined cookie sheets about 1 inch apart.
  8. Bake at 300° F for 20 minutes, rotating sheet pans halfway through.
  9. Remove from the oven and let rest on the sheet pans for 2 minutes, then transfer to a large plate, allowing the cookies to cool completely. Cookies will crisp up as they cool.
  10. Makes about 2 dozen cookies. Store in an airtight container.
