Recipe - Mint Chocolate Logs

1 Stick margarine, softened
4 ounce Fatfree cream cheese,
softened
1 Egg white, whipped
1 Square unsweetened
chocolate, melted
One half teaspoon Vanilla
One half teaspoon Peppermint extract
1 One half cup Unbleached flour
Three fourths cup Granulated sugar
One fourth cup Almonds, finely chopped
One half teaspoon Baking powder
One fourth teaspoon Salt
One half cup 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.
