These delicious biscuits are the perfect treat for after Christmas dinner.
350g ground almonds
350g caster sugar
4 egg whites
1 ½ tbsp amaretto
Butter, for greasing
Preheat the oven to 180C / Gas 4.
In a large bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff. Gently mix in the sugar, amaretto and almonds.
Place some baking parchment on a baking tray and butter lightly.
Using a teaspoon place small dollops (about 2cm) onto the sheet.
Bake for 12–15 minutes until a pale golden brown. Leave to set on the baking tray, as they are quite soft at this stage. They will harden as they cool.
