Store bought speculaas get their distinctive square shape from a mold, but
the cookie can be made without a mold.

In a small bowl, stir together milk and brown sugar. In a bowl combine
butter, flour, baking powder, spices, salt. Add brown sugar mixture.

On a lightly floured work surface, knead the dough until smooth.

Form the dough into a 1 1/4-inch square log and cut into 36 1/4-inch thick
slices. Arrange the slices 1″ apart on a lightly buttered baking sheet and
center an almond on each slice, pressing it in slightly.

Bake cookies in batches in middle shelf of a preheated 350 degree oven for
10-12 minutes or until golden.

Transfer the cookies carefully to racks to cool. They will become firmer
and crisp as they cool.
