Spiced Almond Wafers

• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
• 1 1/2 cups packed dark brown sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 1 1/2 teaspoons ground ginger
• 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves

1. Line 2 mini loaf pans with plastic wrap.

3. Reduce speed to low. Add eggs and spices. Beat in flour mixture in 3 additions.
4. Press cookie dough into pans, and cover tightly with plastic wrap. Freeze for 1 1/2 hours (or up to 1 month).
