Amaretti are a traditional almond flavoured Italian cookie which has a soft and pillowy centre encased in a delicious sweet, crispy shell. Traditionally flavoured with Amaretto liquor (hence the name) I have used sugar-free almond extract instead.
You can use packaged ground almonds or grind your own; if skin is retained your amaretti will be darker in colour but still flavoursome. If you grind your own, make sure to toast the almonds first, as it will intensify the flavour and make your amaretti even more delicious.
