Espresso Amaretti Cookies
Report
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
- 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.
