Crisp wafer-thin almond cookies are chic to serve on plated desserts.
Ingredients
- 1 egg white
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 3 tbsp all-purpose flour
- 2 tbsp butter, melted
- 1 tsp water
- 1/2 tsp vanilla
- 3/4 cup sliced almonds
Preparation
Line 2 rimless baking sheets with parchment paper or grease; set aside.
In large bowl, whisk together egg white, sugar, flour, butter, water and vanilla just until blended. Spoon by teaspoonfuls (5 mL), 2 inches (5 cm) apart, onto prepared baking sheets; using offset spatula, spread each to 3-inch (8 cm) circle. Sprinkle each with a few almonds.
Bake in centre of 350°F (180°C) oven, one sheet at a time, until edges are just beginning to brown, about 8 minutes. Transfer to rack; let cool completely. (Make-ahead: Store in airtight container for up to 2 days.)
