<h5>2 min</h5><p>Weigh out 300 g powdered sugar. Set aside.</p>

<h5>2 min</h5><p>Weigh 350 g of powdered almonds. Set aside.</p>

<h5>3 min</h5><p>Whip 4 egg whites, halfway through, without stopping, pour in 2 tablespoons taken from the 300g of powdered sugar.</p>

<h5>3 min</h5><p>When the whites are sufficiently whipped and shiny, reduce the speed of the whisk a little and pour in the remaining powdered sugar bit by bit.</p>

<h5>1 min</h5><p>When all the sugar is incorporated, stop the whisk and pour all the almond powder at once and 3 drops of bitter almond extract on top.</p>

<h5>4 min</h5><p>Gently blend with a maryse until smooth. Don't insist on mixing very very carefully, it won't help.</p>

<h5>5 min</h5><p>Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F).</p><p>Shape the amaretti on a sheet of baking paper placed on a baking sheet, best done with a piping bag, but with 2 small spoons is fine too, it's just less even.</p>

<h5>2 min</h5><p>If you have "spikes" on top of the amaretti, you can flatten them with a small spoon dipped in milk.</p>

<h5>1 min</h5><p>Sprinkle with confectioners' sugar if desired.</p>

<h5>40 min</h5><p>Put in the oven for about 40 minutes, until they are just barely blond.</p>
