Recipe #31: Toasted Pine Nut Amaretti
Posted by Unknown
This is a traditional Italian cooked that I decided to make for my friend's birthday since she is Italian. This is a very easy cookie to throw together but there are a couple steps to pay attention to like toasting the pine nuts and dicing up the almond paste. The cookies are ready to bake once the batter is done. Scoop them out on silpat if you have it and then bake for about 50 minutes.
The result: a very flavorful chewy cookie. The almond paste taste almost overpowered the cookie for me but the more I ate the more I liked them. My husband was addicted to them so that's always a good sign. Next time I will cook them about 5 minutes more in hopes they are not so chewy.
