2 ¼ cups almond flour or almond meal

1 ½ cups powdered sugar

1 ½ teaspoons almond extract

Pinch of salt

2 egg whites

Set the oven rack in the middle position and heat the oven to 375 degrees. Cover a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine the almond flour, powdered sugar, almond extract and salt. Whisk the egg whites lightly with a whisk. Add egg whites to the almond mixture, and stir with a wooden spoon into a firm dough. Form balls the size of an unshelled walnut, flatten them slightly between your hands, and place them on the baking sheet.
Bake 12-15 minutes until light brown, turning the baking sheet front to back twice to ensure even browning. Let cool to room temperature before serving. Store in a container with a tight-fitting lid. The cookies will be extra chewy one day after baking. Makes 20 cookies.
