Knead well so the warmth of your hands releases the oil in the almonds to make a soft, workable paste.With oiled hands, roll walnut-sized pieces of the mixture into egg-shaped balls. Cover a plate with icing sugar. Flatten the balls on the plate, covering them in the sugar.Place the balls, spaced well apart, on an oiled baking sheet and bake in a preheated 350 F oven for about 15 min. or until golden.
