Yield apprx 2 dozen cookies

Number Of Ingredients 9

8-ounce can almond paste (DO NOT use paste from a tube)
1 c. sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 pinch salt
1/8 t. cinnamon
2 large egg whites at room temperature
2 T. powdered sugar
1/4 c pignolis (pine nuts) - European are better than the Asian variety in this recipe
1/4 c sliced almonds (optional)

Steps:

  • In a food processor with blade attachment combine first 5 ingredients and pulse until it forms a paste. With electric mixer combine egg whites and powdered sugar. Beat at high speed until frothy and doubled in size. Add to food processor and pulse just enough to combine with the paste. Paste will be extremely sticky.
