Yield: about 2 dozen cookies

Ingredients

  • 1 pound 10 ounces almond paste
  • Whites from 4 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 8 ounces sliced almonds
  • 4 ounces (or as needed) dark chocolate

Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the almond paste and two of the egg whites, mixing until smooth. Add the sugar and mix again until smooth. Add the remaining egg whites and mix again until smooth.
  2. Place the batter into a pastry bag with a large, round tip. Pipe the cookies in crescent shapes onto a lightly greased cookie sheet. Sprinkle each one with sliced almonds.
  3. Bake at 350 degrees F for about 10 to 12 minutes, or until golden brown.
