Steps:
- Preheat oven to 300 degrees F. Prepare two baking sheets with parchment paper, or use silicone linings.
- Place the pine nuts in a bowl.
- In a food processor, break up the almond paste into small pieces, and pulse with the two sugars and the flour.
- Once the mixture is finely ground, begin to add the egg whites a little at a time, just until the dough comes together.
- Depending on the humidity, or the size of your egg whites, sometimes you may need all of the egg whites, while other times you won't.
- Using a spoon and slightly wet hands, scoop a small spoonful of the dough, and place this into the bowl of pignoli.
- Roll the cookie arround until it is lightly coated, and then place it on the prepared baking sheet.
- Continue forming the cookies in this manner, placing them 2 inches apart on the baking pan.
- Bake the cookies 20 to 25 minutes, and then cool.
- Dust lightly with powdered sugar before serving.

PIGNOLI COOKIES
There are two kinds of pignoli cookies I grew up eating. While the crunchy version is also delicious, I am a sucker for the sweet chewiness of this soft, meringue-y version. They are also gluten free so I like to include them on holiday plates so everyone has something to enjoy.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
- Break apart the almond paste in the bowl of a food processor. Add the confectioners' sugar, vanilla extract, salt and egg white and pulse until smooth. Scoop 1-tablespoon balls of dough directly into the pine nuts and gently roll them in the pine nuts, pressing gently to adhere. (The dough is soft but the pine nuts will help make it easier to handle.)
- Place the cookies 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet. Bake until lightly browned around the edges and puffed, 16 to 18 minutes. Allow to cool completely on the tray before removing them with an offset spatula.
ITALIAN PINE NUT COOKIES
This outstanding recipe is different from the other Pignoli submissions on Zaar. It's originally from the King Arthur Flour company and you can buy the ingredients to make them on their web site www.kingarthurflour.com. (I don't work there but I'm a fan of their products.)

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees.
- Break the marzipan in pieces into a medium-sized bowl. Mix in the sugar, salt, flavorings and almond flour; the mixture will be crumbly. Add the egg white, beating until the mixture is smooth.
- Place the pine nuts in a shallow dish. Using a teaspoon cookie scoop, or your lightly oiled or wets hands, drop one inch balls of dough into the pine nuts, rolling and pressing gently to coat them thoroughly. You may also simply grab a handful of pine nuts, and roll the dough between your palms, pressing in pine nuts as you go.
- Place the cookies on lightly greased or parchment-lined cookie sheets, leaving about one inch between them.
- Bake the cookies for 20 to 22 minutes, or until they're lightly browned. Cool them on the pans for five minutes, then transfer to a rack to cool completely.
PIGNOLI COOKIES (ITALIAN PINE NUT COOKIES)
These are a traditional Italian Christmas cookie, that are chewy, almondy and delicious! We always have a bunch of these cookies on hand around the holidays in my family. **Please note, that the dough will be very sticky and a lil bit of a pain to work with, but they end up being so worth the effort. Adding flour to this dough changes the texture of them somewhat, so I never add it, but that's a personal choice :) These cookies end result are just like I had them as a little girl, and are my absolute favorite!

PIGNOLI AMARETTI (PINE NUT COOKIES)
My most favorite cookies in the world!!! Very expensive to buy in an Italian bakery and this recipe is the best I've ever tasted. I love baking Italian cookies of all kinds, but these are my specialty. When breaking up almond paste it's always nice to have someone sit and do it with you. I usually use that time to chat with my kids. My sister did it with me once too.
