Almond Cakes Recipe

Take one pound of almonds, blanch them; then take one pound of

double-refined sugar, beaten very small; crack the almonds, one by one,

upon the tops; put them into the sugar; mix them, and then beat them

well together till they will work like paste. Make them into round

cakes; take double-refined sugar, pounded and sifted, beat together with

the white of an egg, and, when the cakes are hardened in the oven, take

them out, and cover one side with sugar with a feather; then put them

into the oven again, and, when one side is hardened, take them out and

do the same on the other side. Set them in again to harden, and

afterwards lay them up for use.
