Instructions
-
Using a food processor, pulse the almond flour, powdered sugar, and salt a few times to break up any clumps.
-
Add 1 teaspoon of almond extract and pulse to combine.
-
Test at this point to see if it has enough almond flavoring. I really like almond so I added 2 teaspoons.

Add egg white and to your food processor on for 2 minutes.

At this point, the mixture should be smooth and formed a ball.
-
If dough is still sticky add 1 tablespoon more of almond flour.
