Use a pastry chopper (or food processor) to break up the almond paste into a granulated form. Put in mixing bowl and
gradually add the sugar.
In another small bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff. Fold the egg whites into the sugar/almond paste mixture gently.
On a greased and floured cookie sheet, drop a spoonful of the mixture. Press pine nuts into the top of the cookie (you want to cover the top with nuts).
Bake at 325 degrees for 10-12 minutes. Cool on wire rack.
