Recipes of My Art

Ingredients
  

  • 3 egg whites
  • 220 g ground almonds
  • 100 g caster sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla essence
  • 2 eggs beaten
  • glacé cherries quartered
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 4 tablespoons caster sugar

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 150°c and line a baking tray with baking paper.
  • Lightly beat the egg whites until they just start to become fluffy, add the ground almonds, sugar and vanilla essence. Once all the ingredients have come together add the 2 lightly beaten eggs, this will help soften the mixture into more of a paste.
  • Place the mixture into a piping bag with your chosen nozzle and pipe the biscuits onto the tray, place a piece of glacé cherry onto each biscuit. Place in the oven and cook for about 20 minutes or until golden brown (cooking time will vary depending on the size you make you biscuits.
  • While the biscuits are cooking make the glaze. Place the milk and 4 tablespoons of caster sugar into a small pot, and bring to the boil, give it a stir to make sure all the sugar has dissolved properly.
  • Once the biscuits are golden brown remove from the oven and brush over the glaze, then move the biscuits to a wire wrack to cool.
