Ideal served with hot coffee, these tasty little crisps complement a Holiday buffet as well as serve as all time favourite treats!

INGREDIENTS:

5 large egg whites
1 1/2 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup butter, melted and cooled
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup blanched almonds, finely ground or chopped
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon lemon peel

PREPARATION:

1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Beat the egg whites with the sugar and salt for 2 or 3 minutes until the sugar is dissolved and the egg whites are thick and white.
2. Blend in the melted butter and then gently fold in the flour, almonds, lemon juice and peel.
3. Using two teaspoons, drop blobs of dough, well apart, onto a lightly greased non-stick cookie sheet. Bake them for 10 to 12 minutes. With a spatula, lift them off the cookie sheet to a cooling rack soon after they come out of the oven. They are somewhat reluctant to part company with the sheet once they have thoroughly cooled.
