Transfer the batter into a piping bag fitted with a large plain tip. On a sheet pan lined with a silicone mat, pipe small round dollops of batter, about 1½ inches wide. Top each dollop with one almond in the center.

Notes:
- For fluffier cookies, whip the egg whites to stiff peaks and incorporate them into the almond paste (similar to making macarons).
- The texture of the cookie should be chewy through the center, similar to a frangipane in a cookie format.
