Cooking Preparation of the Recipe:

2 Egg whites
1 c Superfine granulated sugar
1 1/2 c Toasted almonds, ground
3/4 c Toasted hazelnuts, ground
2 tb All-purpose flour
1 ts Cinnamon
1/4 ts Nutmeg
Confectioner's sugar

---------------------------ICING--------------------------------
1 Egg white
1 1/2 c Confectioner's sugar
1 ts Water

In small mixer bowl, beat 2 egg whites until soft peaks form (tips
curl over). Gradually beat in the 1 cup of superfine sugar, beating
until stiff peaks form (tips stand straight up). Stir together nuts,
flour, and spices; fold in beaten egg whites. Let mixture rest 30
minutes or longer so nuts can absorb mixture. Roll out to 1/4-inch
thickness on surface lightly sprinkled with powdered sugar. Cut with
star-shapped cookie cutter(*). Place on greased baking sheet. Bake in
325øF oven for 10 - 15 minutes. Cool on rack. (*) Dough scraps may be
rerolled to 1/2-inch thickness and cut with scalloped cutter. Bake
in 325øF oven for 20 minutes. Store in covered container.

ICING: Beat 1 egg white slightly. Gradually stir in the remaining 1
1/2 c confectioner's sugar. Add water till icing is of spreading
consistency.
