Cooking Preparation of the Recipe:

1 Stick margarine -- softened
4 oz Fat-free cream cheese --
Softened
1 Egg white -- whipped
1 Square unsweetened chocolate
Melted
1/2 ts Vanilla
1/2 ts Peppermint extract
1 1/2 c Unbleached flour
3/4 c Granulated sugar
1/4 c Almonds -- finely chopped
1/2 ts Baking powder
1/4 ts Salt
1/2 c Mint chocolate chips --
Melted

Preheat oven at 375. In a mixing bowl, combine margarine, cream
cheese, egg white, melted chocolate, vanilla, and peppermint extract.
Add flour mixed with almonds, baking powder. In another mixing bowl,
combine flour, sugar, almonds, baking powder, and salt. Cover and
refrigerate at least 1 hour, until firm. Divide one fourth of dough
into 12 pieces. Roll each piece into 2 1/2" long strip and place the
strips 1" apart on unprepared baking sheets. Repeat with remaining
dough. Bake 8 to 10 minutes, or until edges are set. Let cookies
cool on sheets 2 minutes, then remove to a rack and let cool
completely. Using a knife or a metal spatula, spread melted
chocolate on one end of each log.
