Time 55m

Yield Makes 20

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 3/4 cups sliced almonds (about 5 1/2 ounces)
1 cup confectioners' sugar
2 large egg whites
1/2 teaspoon pure almond extract

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spread almonds in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet, and toast in oven until lightly browned and fragrant, 7 to 9 minutes. Remove from oven; let cool.
  • Combine almonds and sugar in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the metal blade, and grind to a fine powder. Transfer to a medium bowl. In a separate bowl, beat egg whites until stiff peaks form. Fold egg whites into almond mixture; fold in almond extract.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Transfer almond mixture to a pastry bag fitted with a 1/2-inch plain tip. Pipe twenty 2-inch rings onto prepared sheet, about 1 inch apart. Bake until golden brown and firm to the touch, about 25 minutes. Remove from oven, and immediately transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my cookies turned out flat and dense. I'm not sure what went wrong.

I had a hard time getting the cookies to crisp up. I ended up baking them for a few extra minutes, but they still weren't as crispy as I would have liked.

These cookies were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good.

I'm not a huge fan of almond-flavored desserts, but these cookies were surprisingly good. The almond flavor is subtle and the cookies are very light and airy.

These cookies are a great way to use up leftover egg whites. They're also a great gluten-free option.

I've made these amaretti crisps several times now and they're always a crowd-pleaser. They're the perfect combination of chewy and crispy, and the almond flavor is divine.

These amaretti crisps were a hit! They were so easy to make and turned out perfectly crispy and flavorful. I loved the almond flavor and the hint of orange zest.
