Ingredients
  

For the Cake
  • 2 cups Almond Flour Provides a rich almond flavor and nutty texture; substitute regular flour for a less intense almond taste.
  • 1 cup Powdered Sugar Sweetens the petit fours and helps achieve a smooth frosting texture; ensure it is sifted for the best consistency.
  • 3 large Egg Whites Acts as a binder for the cake, contributing to its structure; use fresh eggs for better results.
  • 1/4 cup Butter Adds moisture and richness to the cake; can be substituted with a dairy-free alternative for vegan options.
For the Coating
  • 8 oz White Chocolate Used for coating, adding a glossy finish; dark chocolate can provide a richer flavor.
For the Garnish
  • 1/2 cup Almond Slices Garnish that adds texture and visual appeal; can be toasted for additional crunch.
Optional Flavor Enhancer
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract Enhances flavor; may replace almond extract for a milder taste.
