I think this recipe originally came from a Better Homes & Gardens magazine about 20 years ago, my mum first made these for Christmas so they always remind me of that time of year.
185g ground almonds, toasted
90g ground hazelnuts, toasted
2 Tbs plain flour
1 cup sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp nutmeg
2 egg whites
icing sugar
Stir together nuts, flour, cinnamon and nutmeg. In a small bowl, beat egg whites until soft peaks form. Gradually add sugar, beating until stiff. Fold the nut mixture into the beaten egg whites. Cover and let stand for 30 minutes so nuts absorb moisture. On a surface lightly sprinkled with icing sugar, roll out dough 5 mm thick. Cut with a 3.5-5 cm star shaped cutter. Place on baking tray lined with baking paper. Bake @ 160 degrees C for 10-15 minutes. Cool on a wire rack
