zest of 2 oranges
2 egg whites
½ cup almonds, coarsely chopped

Place the chopped almonds on a plate. Take tablespoon-sized balls of the dough and roll them into football-like shapes. Then roll them in the chopped almonds, pressing gently so that the almonds stick.
Bend the "footballs" into crescent shapes and place them on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes, until they just start to turn a bit golden. Let the cookies cool for at least a few minutes on the baking sheet before moving them to a wire rack to cool completely.
These cookies taste even better after sitting in an airtight container for a day - it really gives the flavors and textures a chance to meld!
NOTE: Always read labels carefully
