Description
Amaretti biscuits are traditional Italian almond flavoured macaron biscuits. The word amaretti means ‘little bitter things’, and the cookies do have a slightly bitter almond taste. Amaretti biscuits were first created in the early 1700’s in Venice, as an emergency wedding treats for a baker, who only had eggs, apricot kernels and sugar in the building at the time the priest arrived. Today amaretti biscuits are still made in the traditional way, with sugar, apricot kernels and egg whites.
Delicious with coffee or a glass of dessert wine or use in cakes and desserts or in classic pumpkin and amaretti tortellini.
This packet of amaretti biscuits is ideal for after-dinner treats, or to crush and use in baking – perhaps to make a crumble or crunchy topping for ice cream, a great choice when using the biscuits for baking, cooking.
