Italian Chocolate Amaretti - Almond Cookies: (e49)

Buon Giorno Tutti! In this episode, Nonna Mia, la nonna di tutti (everyone's grandmother), creates the most delicious amaretti cookies - soft & chewy on the inside, crispy on the outside. You will love them! To start, mix the dry ingredients:

- 1 pound of almond flour, about 4 cups
- 1/2 pound of sugar, about 1 cup
- 1 teaspoon of baking powder
- 1 tablespoon of cocoa

Separately, in a mixing bowl, add 3 egg whites, a pinch of salt, and 2 teaspoons of almond extract. Whip until firm peaks form.

Then gently fold in the dry ingredients into the egg whites. Optionally, add in a shot of espresso. You want the dough to be soft, but the liquid should be fully absorbed.

Then using a scoop, or a tablespoon, start to form dough balls. Roll until smooth and uniform then roll them in sugar and secondly in icing sugar.

Place the cookies on a baking sheet with parchment paper. You can decorate the cookies with toasted almonds, chocolate chips, coffee beans or cherries, or feel free to leave them plain if you prefer. Lightly press down as you insert the amaretti decoration.

Bake at 325F for about 15 minutes. You want to check the cookie base and ensure it has slightly browned. YIELD: 36

Place the cookies on a rack to cool.

Then enjoy with a cup of coffee or espresso.

Buon appetito!
