1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1/4 cup sliced almonds, toasted

1. In a medium mixing bowl, beat all ingredients except almonds at a medium speed until well blended. Stir in almonds.

Cooking Tips
*To toast almonds, heat a skillet and place almonds inside. Saute the almonds (dry) stirring every 30 seconds or so, until almonds begin to turn golden brown. Tend to them closely so they don't burn.
*If you would rather bake this in the oven, bake at 350 degrees F. for 15 minutes, stirring halfway through.
