Espresso Amaretti Cookies

This espresso amaretti cookies recipe is a super easy one that gives you light as air amaretti cookies with just 3 ingredients! I love spiking up my amaretti cookies with espresso for a richer deeper aroma, but even without espresso, these cookies are a fluffy light almond dream with a slight crunch! Totally fat free and just loaded with almond goodness, these espresso amaretti cookies are on the skinny side of sweet pleasures!

Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 1/2 cups almonds
  • 2/3 cup confectioner sugar
  • 2 tablespoons espresso beans
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch (optional, to add extra stability to the cookies)
  • 2 egg whites large
  • pinch of salt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 4 Tablespoons regular sugar

Notes

  • Your egg whites have to be well separated form the yolks, otherwise they won't fluff.
  • Once you start beating the egg whites, don't stop until they're ready!
  • Processing the dry ingredients makes them softer and easier to fold. You can sift them after that for extra easy to work with batter.
  • If you don't have a piping bag, simply dollop tablespoons of cookie batter on your baking sheet.
  • Watch for baking times, they vary from oven to another.
  • Swap the espresso for a vanilla or chai or any flavor you like.
