Spread almond flour and all purpose flour evenly in separate shallow baking pans. Bake each pan 5 to 10 minutes, stirring once or twice, until light golden brown. Combine flours in a bowl and cool to room temperature. Meanwhile, in a large mixing bowl beat butter with an electric mixer on medium to high speed for 30 seconds. Add 1/2 cup of the powdered sugar. Beat until combined, scraping sides of bowl occasionally. Beat in milk, 1 teaspoon of the cinnamon, cardamom, and vanilla until combined. Beat in cooled flour mixture until combined.

Place 1 inch apart on ungreased cookie sheets. Bake about 15 minutes or until bottoms are light brown. Cool on cookie sheet for 2 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack; cool completely. Before serving, in a small bowl combine the remaining powdered sugar and cinnamon. Sprinkle cookies with powdered sugar-cinnamon mixture.
