    List of Ingredients




    1/2 pound almonds
    1 cup sugar
    2 egg whites
    1/2 teaspoon almond extract

    Recipe



    Blanch almonds and place in warm oven 5 minutes to dry completely. Chop almonds very fine until reduced to a powder. Add sugar and mix well. Beat egg whites until stiff but not dry and add to almonds and sugar. Add almond extract and blend all together gently but thoroughly.

    Leave a space of 1 inch between cookies, shaping spoonfuls of batter into ovals. Sprinkle with confectioners' sugar, let stand 2 hours and bake in moderate oven (375 degrees) 5 minutes, or until delicately brown in color.
    Makes 14.
