Macaroons Flavored with Coffee

Mix one pound of ground almonds and a pound and a half of sugar in a basin with a little extract of coffee, adding the whites of some eggs to form it into a paste. Place it on a wafer-paper in the shape of fingers and bake in an oven until they are of a light pale brown. Take them out when they are done, remove them by damping, and place in paper-boxes until wanted.
