Lemon Almond Meringue Cookies 杏仁柠檬蛋白霜脆饼 ~喜气羊羊 2015


When I saw this recipe in an old newspaper (I have a habit to collect nice recipes published in newspaper ), I know I have to make it . This recipe requires to use egg white, perfect for me where I have few containers of egg white still sitting in the fridge. This cookies similar like macaron which use meringue and almond, but the texture is very light and crispy, also less sweet than macaron as lemon is added, and the topping of almond flakes also gave extra aroma to this cookie.
