MARZIPAN BALLS
1½ cups ground almonds
1½ cups icing sugar
2 teaspoons almond extract
2 organic egg whites
cherries
chocolate for dipping
In a food processor, place the almonds, icing sugar and almond extract. Blend, then add the egg whites slowly until a stiff dough is formed. (You may not use all the egg white) Sprinkle some icing sugar on a board and place the dough on it. Knead for about a minute. Roll and cut little pieces. Put a cherry in the middle and roll into a ball then dip in chocolate.
