The almond paste is a typical dessert of Sicilian cuisine, it is very important that the almond flour is clear, this is an indication of good quality. In a bowl put the flour with the sugar and pour in the egg white, begin to stir, until the mixture is spongy and a bit sticky which has a volume average, add 2 or 3 drops of essence of almonds and knead. Let us now make balls of about 3 cm in diameter with the dough that we got at this point we can sprinkle the balls with icing sugar, which will ensure a crispy crust, while the inside will remain soft. We finish the pasta incastonandoci an almond or pine nuts and let's make it cook for 10-12 minutes in a preheated oven at 160 degrees.
