	Here's my favorite recipe for Sandbakelser:

		Sandbakelser 1 C. butter or margarine 1 C. granulated sugar 1 egg 1 tsp. almond extract 3 C. sifted all-purpose flour 1 C. apricot preserves 2 tsp. lemon juice 1/4 C. chopped candied red cherries (optional) 1/4 C. toasted sliced almonds Thoroughly cream butter and sugar. Add the egg and almond extract and beat well. Stir in the sifted flour. Pinch small amount of dough and place in center of 2 1/2 inch sandbakelse mold (you can use tiny fluted tart pans or foilware pans instead). Press the dough into the mold as thinly and evenly as possible (use your thumb). Place molds on cookie sheet. Bake in moderate oven (350) about 12 to 14 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool. To remove, invert molds and tap lightly. Clean the molds only with a dry cloth. Just before serving, combine the preserves, lemon juice and cherries. Place a teaspoon of the mixture in each cookie tart. Stick the almonds in or sprinkle them over the top. Makes about 3 1/2 dozen.
