    List of Ingredients




    3 egg whites
    3 cups confectioners' sugar
    3 cups unblanched grated almonds
    1 tablespoon lemon juice
    1 tablespoon cinnamon
    1/4 teaspoon mace
    Sugar

    Recipe



    Beat egg whites until stiff. Beat in the confectioner’s sugar, 2 tablespoons at a time; the mix should be stiff and glossy. Reserve 1 cup of mix. Beat almonds, lemon juice, cinnamon and mace into the remaining egg-white mixture and let it stand for 30 minutes to 1 hour. It should dry out and be firm. Sprinkle your counter surface with sugar. Carefully roll out the dough to a thickness of ½- to ¾- inches. If dough sticks, sprinkle more sugar on the surface. Cut the dough with star-shaped cookie cutters. Paint each cookie carefully and neatly with the reserved egg-white mix, then place cookies on a buttered and floured baking sheet. Bake in preheated slow oven at 275 degrees F for about 15 minutes or until set. The icing should remain white.
