12 Weeks of Christmas Cookies....Christmas Amaretti

I made amaretti for Easter, using powdered food coloring to get lovely pastel hues.  I remember thinking how pretty they would be on the Christmas cookie platter.  The hue of these are not as deep as I'd have liked, so in my next batch, I'll add more powder.  The taste, however, is exquisite.  These are a favorite of my husband, and when I baked them yesterday, I had to stash a few for their photo op.  These are a delicious and easy addition to your holiday cookie platter or for Santa!
