Ingredients
How many servings?
- 2 cups (400 ml) almonds
- ¾ cups (150 ml) sugar
- 2 egg
- ½ tsp vanillin sugar
Method
- Preheat the oven to 175°C. Grind the almonds in a food processor until they reach a fine, flour-like consistency.
- Separate the eggs and whisk the whites until just frothy.
- Mix in the ground almonds, sugar and vanillin to a sticky dough.
- With wet hands, roll walnut-sized balls, set them on a lined tray and press lightly.
- Bake in the preheated oven at 175°C for about 15 minutes, until the edges are lightly golden. Let the cookies cool on the tray for 10 minutes to firm up.
