@Knit-Chick These are to die for. I can't stop eating them. I buy my almond paste on Amazon. You local grocery store might have it. You can buy these sold as gluten free cookies, but they are so expensive. I make them much cheaper and have to hide them. Everyone goes crazy for them.
i don't always drizzle with chocolate or decorate with sliced almonds.

Gluten free flour...I do not have a gluten issue but wondering if I use the gluten free flour to bake with, does that lessen the caloric value as opposed to using 'regular all purpose flour'?

Heres a good recipe and you can use your vitamix to make the oat flour.
