this is the first trial with almond paste.. looking forward to make the true paste alle mandorle (wonderful pastries made of almonds, sugar and vanilla) i decided to use the ready made almond paste i bought in sicily. actually it would be perfect to be flattened in a sheet, cut and make very sweet confectionery or coating, but i dont like too much that kind of stuff.. besides i dont even like too much marzipan. so i tried something and what came out is some delicious sort of amaretti :)
