2 cups ground almonds
3/4 cup caster sugar
1 teaspoon almond and/or vanilla extract
2 egg whites
Almond halves, for garnish [optional]
Mix the almonds and sugar together. Add the almond and/or vanilla extract and egg whites, and mix until it forms a paste.
Roll into small balls in the palm of your hands. Shape each one like a crescent or keep round and place half an almond in the center.
Spray a cookie sheet with non-stick cooking spray or line with baking paper.
Place the cookies on the sheet and bake @ 350F/180C for 10 to 12 minutes. (The cookies should be slightly golden and soft to the touch.) Remove from sheet and cool.
