Ingredients

4 oz. Coarsely ground almonds

1 cup sugar

2 large egg whites

½ tsp. Vanilla

1 or 2 drops almond essence

blanched almonds for decorating (optional)

Directions

Combine ground almonds, sugar, unbeaten egg whites, vanilla and almond essence, mix well. Place mixture in small bowl of electric mixer.

Beat mixture on medium speed 3 minutes. Let mixture stand 5 minutes.

Mound a tablespoon or two of the mixture onto a cookie sheet. If you like, place a blanched almond in the middle of each mound. Bake in a 350 oven for 12 to 15 minutes or until tops are lightly browned. Leave on the trays a few minutes before removing with a metal spatula to cool on a wire rack. Makes about 20 cookies

I love amaretti - they're very similar to almond macaroons, another cookie I love. Thanks for sharing this lovely simple recipe :-)
