These are the simplest to make, and my favourites.

Ingredients

  • 1 teacup ground almonds
  • 1 teacup sifted icing sugar
  • 4–6

Method

Wash and dry your hands, and shape the paste into little balls the size of large marbles. Roll them in icing sugar. Decorate if you like with halved almonds or pistachio nuts embedded in the top of the balls. Serve in individual little pape
