INSTRUCTIONS

Place almonds in food processor, and process until finely ground. Add sugar
and flour; process until blended. Add rose water and egg whites; process
until well-blended (the mixture will be very thick). With floured hands,
shape the dough into 28 balls, and place 2 inches apart on baking sheets
coated with cooking spray.
Bake at 325 degrees for 28 minutes or until crisp on the outside and soft
on the inside; cool on racks.

The original version of these cookies called for 2 cups of almonds. We
replaced 1 cup with flour for a healthier, but still delicious,
alternative.
