Makes : 36 to 40 cookie sticks

Ingredients :

• 1/2 cup canola oil
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
• 1 egg
• 1/2 tsp.  almond extract
• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 tsp.  baking soda 
• 1/8 tsp.  salt
• 1/2 to 3/4 cup almonds, chopped or sliced

Method :

• In a large bowl, combine the oil, sugars, egg and almond extract.
• Combine the flour, baking soda and salt; gradually add to sugar mixture and mix well.
• Divide dough in half. On a greased baking sheet, shape each portion into a 15" x 3" rectangle; placing about 3" apart.
• Sprinkle almonds over dough; press lightly.
• Bake at 160 C for 18 - 20 minutes. Remove from oven & cool for 5 minutes. 
• Cut with a serrated knife into 1" strips; remove to wire racks to cool. 

Notes :

• They spread a lot, so make sure to leave plenty of space between each dough log.
• I've baked at a low temperature for a long time.
