Method

Ingredients

Preheat the oven to 180°C. Beat together the butter, sugar, egg yolks, almond extract and ground almonds. Sift in the dry ingredients and mix to form a smooth dough.
Roll out balls and place on a greased baking tray. Flatten slightly and make an indent in the middle with your thumb. Bake for 15 minutes or until light brown.
Allow to cool. Dip each biscuit into the icing and then into the hundreds-and-thousands.
