Kitchen tip
Almond grind size can vary among brands; weigh yours for best results. The batter should be pipeable, but not thick. Add more ground almonds, 1 tbsp at a time, if batter is runny. Don’t use almond flour: It will make the batter too thick to pipe.
Shortcut
Don’t want to pipe stars? Roll dough into 3/4-in. balls, coat in extra sugar and arrange on a baking sheet. Bake a few min longer for a golden-brown hue.
