For the Almond Paste, grind the almonds through the finest blade of a food

egg whites and almond extract. Mold into a ball. Place in a tightly covered
container and refrigerate for at least 4 days to age. Makes 1 pound.
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Soften the almond paste with your hands and
work in the sugar, salt, flour, powdered sugar and egg whites. Drop by
teaspoonfuls 2 inches apart onto ungreased wrapping paper placed on cookie
