    Ingredients:

    * 500 g ground almonds

    * 250 g sugar

    * ½ glass of water

    * 1 cup butter

    * 2 tablespoons orange flower water

    * Food dye (red and green)


    Method:

    In a saucepan, mix the water, sugar, and orange flower water.
    Cook on low heat, when the syrup starts to thicken, add the ground almonds while continuously mixing with a wooden spoon.

    Remove from the heat when you notice that the mixture does not stick to the base and the sides of the pan anymore.

    Pour the mixture into a bowl, add the butter. Mix well and divide into 3 parts. Cplour one in red, one in green and leave the 3rd one natural.

    No need to cook, just use your imagination and artistic skills (balls, fruit shapes, squares..)
