Cinnamon Stars
How to make Cinnamon Stars recipe
MAKES 24 COOKIES
Ingredients:
2 egg whites
2 1/4 cups powdered sugar, sifted
1 1/2 cups almond meal
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
Method:
Beat the egg whites lightly with a wooden spoon in a large bowl. Gradually stir in the powdered sugar to form a smooth icing. Transfer 1/3 cup to a small bowl, cover tightly, and set aside.
Add the almond meal and cinnamon to the remaining icing and gently press together with your hands. Add 1 teaspoon water if the dough seems too dry. Press together well before adding any water, as the warmth of your hands will soften the dough.
Lightly dust a clean work surface with powdered sugar and roll out the dough to about 1/8 inch thick. Spread with a thin layer of the reserved icing. Leave uncovered at room temperature for 30 to 35 minutes, until the icing has set.
Preheat the oven to 300°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Cut out shapes using a variety of star cookie cutters (dipping the cutters in powdered sugar to help prevent sticking).
Place on the baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes, or until just firm. Let cool on the sheet. Store in an airtight container until ready to serve.
