Little Almond and Cherry Cookies by Victoria Granof

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large bowl, combine the almond flour, sugar, honey, egg whites, salt, and almond extract and mix well with a wooden spoonuntil a sticky dough forms.

Step 3

Fit a cloth pastry bag with a 3⁄4-inch (2 cm) star tip, or use a cookie press with the star disk. Fill with some of the dough and squeeze itout onto the baking sheet, forming rings 1⁄21 inches (4 cm) in diameter. Leave a thumb-width between each one. Press a cherry into the center of each ring and bake for 10 to 12 minutes, until golden brown. Cool completely, then store airtight for up to a week.
