Crisp Florentine Cookies

Ingredients

1/2 c cream
1/2 c sugar
1/4 ts salt
1 1/4 c blanched nuts
1/4 lb candied orange peel
1/4 c flour

Instructions

PREHEAT OVEN TO 325F. Heat cream, sugar and salt together. Place nuts, candied peel and flour in a food processor with the steel blade, and chop coarsely, turning the machine on and off. Stir this into hot ingredients and cook until the mixture thickens, about 2 minutes. Drop by teaspoons, 2 inches apart, on a well-greased cookie sheet. Bake for 12 minutes, until brown around the edges. Cool slightly on sheet. Remove and let cool until crisp.
