Bitterkoekje

A bitterkoekje is a traditional Dutch biscuit made from a mixture of ground bitter and sweet almonds, granulated sugar and egg white. Known for its chewy texture and characteristic almond aroma, it is often compared to the Italian hard almond cookies amaretti, ('amaro' means bitter), though preparation, texture and taste distinguish the two. The dough of bitterkoekjes is piped or shaped into small rounds and baked until the surface is lightly golden.
