On a floured work surface, roll out the dough to about 1/2-inch thick. Cut into shapes with cookie cutters, and place on a lightly greased or non-stick cookie sheet, brushing each one with the egg-wash glaze. Place 1/2 of an almond in the top center of each cookie and sprinkle with the sugar crystals.
