 Line 2 or 3 baking sheets with cooking parchment.  Beat the egg whites in
a


 deep bowl until stiff; lightly fold in the almonds & sugar & add a few


 drops of almond extract. Spoon the mixture into a pastry bag fitted with a


 large rosette tube & pipe it onto the baking sheets in small rosetts & S


 shapes, leaving about an inch between each. Decorate the petits fours with


 candied cherries, strips of angelica, silver shot, nuts, or candied


 violets.  Bake in the center of a preheated oven at 350 about 20 minutes,


 until golden brown.
