1
pound ground almonds  
/4 cup granulated sugar  
tablespoons toasted bread crumbs  
egg whites  
/2 teaspoon lemon juice  
Pinch of salt  
1
teaspoon vanilla extract  
Rose water  
Confectioners’ sugar  
Beat egg whites with salt until stiff, then add lemon juice. Add almonds, sugar and crumbs to egg  
whites, folding them in gradually. Add vanilla extract.  
Cut a brown paper bag to fit a cookie sheet and grease the paper. Drop teaspoon−size macaroons onto  
paper and bake at 275 degrees F about 20 minutes, checking after 15 minutes so that Amigdalota don't  
burn.  
Brush cookies with rose water when they come out of the oven. Loosen them from paper by moistening  
the paper slightly and lifting off macaroons. Sift confectioners' sugar over them and let cool.
