FRENCH ALMOND WAFERS (TUILES)
These almond-flavored wafer cookies are often served in elegant restaurants in Europe. The traditional name of this cookie is the French word for tiles because they are shaped like the curved terracotta roof tiles so prevalent along the Mediterranean.

Steps:
- Take the puff pastry from the freezer and allow to fully defrost IN the packaging. 2. Preheat oven to 400 F or 200 C.3. Unroll the pastry and flatten it on the paper wrapper. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.4. In a small bowl, add the ground almonds, sugar and almond extract if using. Combine with a spoon. Sprinkle almond sugar mixture evenly all over the pastry and use a long flat-bladed knife if you have one to spread the mixture evenly on the surface. Place a sheet of parchment over the top and use a rolling pin to LIGHTLY roll over the mixture so as to press it gently into the pastry. Be careful not to roll hard so you keep the shape of the pastry. Discard parchment paper.5. Take one LONG side and tightly roll the pastry toward the middle. Stop when you get to the middle. Then take the other side of the pastry and roll toward the middle. Wrap the pastry in plastic wrap and pop in the fridge for 20 minutes to firm up. 6. Take the pastry from the fridge and cut the ends off to make it tidy. Then cut into 1/4 inch thick slices. Place flat on a parchment-lined baking sheet. You may need to gently push the cookies down if they are too thick. If you want to make a more defined shape, point the curved parts to make them like rabbit ears. This will help when baking to get the classic palmier shape. 7. Brush the tops lightly with the melted butter and another light sprinkling of sugar. Turn over and brush with butter and sprinkle sugar on the other side too. 8. Bake for approximately 15 - 20 minutes or until the cookies puff up and turn golden brown. Keep an eye on them because they will burn very easily! Halfway through, turn the cookies over so they brown evenly.9. When done, use a fish slice or similar and transfer the cookies to a cooling rack. They will get crispy once cooled.These will store, once cooled, in an airtight container for a few days. They are delicious eaten as they are, or as I do, with a scoop of ice cream!

ORANGE FRENCH LACE COOKIES
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line 2 sheet pans with parchment paper.
- Place the almonds on a sheet pan and toast them for 5 to 10 minutes, until lightly browned, tossing once to toast evenly. Place 1 cup of the toasted almonds in a food processor fitted with the steel blade and chop them very coarsely. (Reserve the rest for later.) Combine the chopped almonds with the flour and set aside.
- Meanwhile, place the butter, brown sugar, corn syrup, orange juice concentrate, orange zest, and vanilla in a small saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat. Off the heat, gradually whisk in the flour mixture until thoroughly combined. Stir in the reserved toasted almonds.
- With 2 teaspoons (tableware rather than measuring spoons), drop rounded spoonfuls of batter (about 1 1/2 inches wide) onto the prepared sheet pans, spacing them at least 2 inches apart. (I put 8 on each pan.) Bake for 7 to 9 minutes, until the edges are golden brown, turning the pans in the oven to brown evenly. Allow to cool and transfer to a wire rack. Repeat for the remaining batter. Store the cooled cookies in an airtight container between layers of wax or parchment paper.

Pass almond flour mixture through a fine-mesh sieve; discard any large pieces that remain. , Place egg whites in a very clean bowl of a stand mixer fitted with whisk attachment; whisk on medium-low speed until frothy. Slowly add superfine sugar; whisk until dissolved, 1-2 minutes. Slowly add remaining confectioners' sugar; increase speed to high and whip until meringue is glossy and stiff peaks form, 2-3 minutes. , Gently fold one-third of the almond flour mixture into meringue; gently fold in remaining almond flour in 2 additions. Using side of spatula, smooth batter up sides of bowl several times to remove air bubbles and ensure there are no lumps; do not overmix. Run spatula down the center of the bowl; the line in the batter should remain visible for a moment before mixture runs back into itself., Position rack in upper third of oven; preheat oven to 300°. Transfer batter into a pastry bag fitted with a #7 or #10 round tip. Pipe 1-3/8-in. rounds onto parchment about 1 in. apart. Tap tray against counter 2-3 times to remove excess air bubbles.

Add heavy cream, vanilla and salt; mix until smooth. Pour frosting into a pastry bag fitted with a small round tip; pipe buttercream onto half the macarons. Top with remaining macaron shells. Refrigerate, covered, until ready to serve. , Peppermint Variation: For macaron shells: Add green gel food coloring (do not use liquid food coloring) to whipped meringue until desired color is reached. To decorate: If desired, top macaron shells with crushed candy canes just after they have been piped and before skin has formed. For filling: Add 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon peppermint extract to mixed frosting. Assemble as directed. , Cranberry Variation: For macaron shells: Add red gel food coloring (do not use liquid food coloring) to whipped meringue until desired color is reached. To decorate macaron shells: Place white candy melts or white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave at 30-second intervals, stirring frequently, until melted and smooth. Place chocolate in a piping bag fitted with a fine round decorating tip; drizzle over macaron shells. Immediately sprinkle with red, green and white assorted sprinkles. For filling: If desired, add 2-3 drops cranberry flavoring to frosting. Pipe a circle of frosting onto bottoms of half the macaron shells. Place 1/4 teaspoon canned cranberry sauce in center of frosting circle. Top with remaining macaron shells. , Hot Chocolate Variation: For macaron shells: Add 2 tablespoons dark cocoa powder to almond flour and confectioners' sugar before sifting. To decorate: Using stiff royal frosting, pipe snowflake designs onto half of the cooled macaron shells. For filling: If desired, using marshmallow fluff instead of frosting, pipe a circle onto bottoms of half the macaron shells. Place 1/2 cup chocolate chips and and 2 tablespoons heavy cream in a microwave-safe bowl; microwave at 30-second intervals, stirring frequently, until melted and smooth.

MACARONS AUX AMANDES (FRENCH ALMOND MACAROONS)
The taste of French Almond Macaroons is based on high quality almonds. Do not use pre-ground almonds. Get unblanched almonds, blanch them prior making and ground them as descibed in this recipe. For this recipe the egg white is mixed directly to the almonds and sugar mixture. The amount of egg white is critical. I always start with only one egg white first. And if the dough has not the right consistency I add a little more egg white.

Steps:
- Roasting Almonds: preheat oven (220°C). Roast blanched almonds on baking tray for about 10 or until golden brown. Do not over-roast. Remove from oven and let cool completely.
- Making Cookies: Preheat oven (180°C).
- Reserve some almonds for decoration (optional).
- Ground the roasted almonds with sugar in food processor.
- While motor is running add as much egg white as need to make a smooth and soft dough, which is still sticky. Add almond or vanilla extract and mix well. The dough has the right consistency, if you can form ball with moistened hands, but is sticky.
- With slightly moistened hands form walnut sized balls. Put dough balls on baking tray flatten them slightly.
- Optional: decorate cookies with halved almonds and/or slightly dust cookies with caster sugar.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the macaroons are slightly golden on top and firm.
- Take tray out of the oven and let cool cookies on tray for a few minutes. Then remove the cookies carefully from tray and let cool completely on cooling rack.
- NOTE on egg white: you may need more than 1 egg white. But start with one and mix very well. Only if the dough is too crumby after mixing add some more egg white.
- Yield is a guess.

- Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper or nonstick baking mats. Combine sugar and almonds in food processor fitted with metal blade.

Let cookies cool completely before removing from paper; use a thin metal spatula or knife blade if cookies stick.
