Ingredients

How to make it

  • Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
  • In either a blender or food processor, grind the almonds with about a tablespoon of sugar until they are very fine.
  • In a bowl, beat the egg whites (with a mixer or by hand) until they are foamy.
  • Begin adding the remaining sugar, a little at a time, and continue beating the egg whites until they are very stiff (stiff peaks form).
  • Gently fold in the nuts and then add the almond and orange extract (be careful not to overmix so that you don’t deflate the mixture).
  • Using a tablespoon, carefully spoon rounds of dough onto the parchment-lined baking sheets. Leave a few inches between each cookie.
  • You can use a pastry bag to pipe out the cookies or you can just use a spoon and carefully spoon drops of the dough onto baking sheets
  • Sprinkle some of the pine nuts over each cookie and bake for about 30 minutes. The cookies will be firm and lightly golden when they’re done.
  • Let cool completely before dusting with icing sugar and serving.
