Steps:
- Preheat oven to375°F/190°C.
- Spread almond on a baking tray and toast for 15 minutes, stirring half way through. Almonds will be golden brown. Allow to cool.
- Keep aside 36 almonds. Using a food processor grind the almonds to a coarse powder.
- Tip ground almond into a mixing bowl and combine with flour, baking soda and baking powder.
- Cream butter and sugar in food processor for 20 seconds. Add egg and process to combine. Then add orange rind, orange juice, vanilla and salt, process until just combined.
- Scrape butter/sugar mixture into almond/flour and stir until well combined. It may help to get your hands in to mix well.
- Divide mixture into three equal portions. Pinch off 12 tablespoons size pieces of dough from one portion. Roll into a ball, flatten then with fingers for into a squarish shape. Place onto baking paper lined tray. Press an almond into the middle of each.
- Repeat for remaining two portions of dough.
- Bake cookies for 25-30 minutes. Allow to cool 5 minutes on tray then place on cooling rack. Cookies will become very crunchy as they cool.

ITALIAN ALMOND-ORANGE COOKIES
Steps:
- In a medium bowl, mix egg whites, sugar, orange zest and honey with a whisk until smooth.
- Add the almond flour and baking powder and mix with a wooden spoon or rubber spatula until moist and all of the dry ingredients are absorbed into the wet and combined.
- Cover and refrigerate for one hour and as long as 24 hours. I made my dough the night before then baked the next morning.
- When ready to bake, preheat oven to 325 degrees F with two racks in top two positions.
- Cover two cookie sheets with parchment paper.
- Place the powdered sugar in a small bowl.
- Roll the dough on your counter with your hands into a fat log and cut it into two equal pieces.
- Roll each piece out into logs and cut in half then each piece in half again. Then cut each piece into three. This will give you 24 pieces.
- Roll each piece into a ball then roll in the powdered sugar then onto the cookie sheets, 12 per tray.
- Bake both together for 15-17 minutes, rotating the pans half way through.
- The cookies are done when they start to crackle and flatten out and are slightly browned on the bottom. The centers will be very soft so don't go by the feel of the cookie and don't lift off the cookie sheet yet.
- As they cool on the cookie sheet, they stiffen up and have a crisp outside and a chewy center.
- Store at room temperature in an air-tight container.
