Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 325'F. Line cookie sheets with parchment paper.
- 2. Break almond paste into small pieces and place into food processor or mixer. Add sugar and mix well. Add the egg whites and mix until moist, about 2-3 minutes.
- 3. Pipe using a large star tip into rounded swirls about 2 inches in diameter or roll into a ball and gently press down a little and top with half of a maraschino cherry, almond or espresso coffee beans. Cookies should be at least 1 inch apart.
- 4. Bake 20 minutes on middle shelf, move to upper shelf, (about 4" above middle shelf); for approximately 8 minutes until light golden brown. Move parchment paper with cookies onto baking racks to cool. When completely cool carefully peel macaroons off paper. Store in airtight container. Buon Appetito!

[email protected]These amaretti cookies are the best I've ever had! They're so light and fluffy, with a perfectly crisp exterior. The almond flavor is rich and nutty, and the hint of orange zest adds a lovely citrus note.
