These cookies are very easy/quick to make and taste great. They are perfect for those who like soft and chewy cookies rather than crispy cookies. The cookie itself is already sweet so I drizzled the icing instead of frosting the top. I toasted some of the almonds and really couldn't tell the difference between the toasted and non-toasted. Next time I'll skip toasting to save time. Enjoy!

These were pretty good and my husband loved them. However, I thought the icing was a little much. Next time, I will drizzle them with the icing before adding the almonds on top. Completely frosting the top made them a little too sweet for my taste. I will also use chopped almonds on top opposed to the slivers. It's just quicker.
