ready in:
  1-2 hrs

ingredients

4 large egg whites
1 3/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon grated orange peel
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 1/2 cup salted almonds
1 3/4 cup flour

directions

With an electric mixer on medium speed, beat egg whites and sugar with orange peel and baking powder until blended. Gradually add nuts and flour, beating until mixture is thoroughly mixed. Cover and chill until firm enough to handle, at least 1 hour or up to 1 day.

Lightly flour your hands and pinch off a 3-Tbsp-size piece of dough. On a lightly floured board, use the palms of both hands to evenly roll an 8 inch-long rope. Cut rope in half; roll each half out again to 8 inches. Fold 1 inch of each end back onto rope; pinch ends to make bone-end shapes. Repeat to shape all the dough.

Place bones one inch apart on buttered and flour dusted 12x15 inch baking sheet. Bake in a 325 degrees F oven until cookies are lightly browned on bottoms, about 20 minutes.

    On reading this recipe, I saw that the ingredient, almonds, could not possibly incorporated into this dough and shaped. The nuts would have to be finely ground to be able to shape that dough.
