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..)
