Directions
In small mixer bowl, beat 2 egg whites until soft peaks form (tips curl over). Gradually beat in the 1 cup of superfine sugar, beating until stiff peaks form (tips stand straight up).
Stir together nuts, flour, and spices; fold in beaten egg whites. Let mixture rest 30 minutes or longer so nuts can absorb mixture.
Roll out to ¼ inch thickness on surface lightly sprinkled with powdered sugar. Cut with star-shapped cookie cutter. Place on greased baking sheet.
Bake in 325℉ (160℃) oven for 10 to 15 minutes. Cool on rack.
Dough scraps may be rerolled to ½-inch thickness and cut with scalloped cutter. Bake in 325℉ (160℃) oven for 20 minutes. Store in covered container.
ICING:
Beat 1 egg white slightly. Gradually stir in the remaining 1½ cup confectioner's sugar. Add water until icing is of spreading consistency.
