Ingredients

  • 3 egg whites
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • a pinch of salt
  • 200 g sugar
  • 250 g ground, trimmed almond kernels
  • 1 tbsp Cornstarch
  • 0.5 tsp cinnamon (to taste)
  • 50 whole peeled almonds
  • 200 g Sour Cream
  • 30 ml vanilla liqueur

Instructions

  1. 1.

    Preheat the oven to 180°C with fan and top heat. Beat the egg whites with lemon juice, salt and sugar until stiff peaks form and all sugar has dissolved into a white glossy, firm mass.

  2. 2.

    Mix the almonds with cornstarch and cinnamon and fold into the meringue. Fill a piping bag fitted with a large round tip and pipe 50-60 small heaps onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper at 3 cm intervals. Place one almond on each heap and press lightly.

  3. 3.

    Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 25–30 minutes. Remove, lift immediately from the tray and cool on a wire rack. Whip the sour cream until creamy and season with liqueur. Serve with the cookies.
