I'll keep those things in mind. We'll probably bake them and the balls tomorrow.jazz lady said:They are very good and disappear quickly, that's for sure. I like them because they are a bit different. I had one guy in my office who absolutely loved them but hates coconut!
I added a little more almond extract and amaretto liqueur than the recipe called for to bring out the almond flavor a bit. I also toasted the sliced almonds for a few minutes to give them a bit of smoky flavor.
