AMARETTI BISCUITS

Ingredients

3/4 egg whites

150g ground almonds

5ml dark honey

60g icing sugar

125g caster sugar

 

Oven: 160C/Gas 3

Serves: 15 cookies

Method

Put the egg whites in a mixer and whisk briefly until frothy.

Add all the other ingredients and whisk for 5 mins, until there is a smooth paste.

Line 2 baking trays with silicone paper.

Drop teaspoon sized pieces onto the paper, leaving room to spread.

Sprinkle with icing sugar and leave in a dry place overnight.

Pinch gently each round between all five fingers to give slight indentations all round the biscuits.

Cook for 20 mins then leave to cool.

They are crispy on the outside and chewy in the middle.
