From the 51st "State"
Basler Brunsli:
Mix
1 cup of ground almonds
1 cup of sugar
a bit cinnemon
and two tablespoons of flour.
Add two stiff eggwhite and 100 gramm (3.5 oz I think) of melted dark (swiss)chocolate.
Cool the dough a couple of hours and then roll out (on top of ground almonds to avoid sticking) about 3/8 of an inch, cut cookies out and let them dry over night. (We like flowershaped cookie cutters, avoid points)
Bake at high temperature for 5 min. 480F
HEAVENLY...........only 700 cal per bite
