Almond Macaroons

== Ingredients ==
* 3 egg whites
* 1 cup powdered sugar
* ½ pound almond paste
== Directions ==
# First rub the sugar and paste together, then add the beaten whites.
# This may be put on oiled paper with a pastry bag and tube, or may be dropped in small bits from the tip of a spoon.
# Bake fifteen to twenty minutes in a cool oven.
# When done, invert the paper and wet with a cloth wrung out of cold water.
# The macaroons will then easily peel off.
# Before baking, the macaroons may be sprinkled with almonds which have been blanched and shredded or chopped.
