Croquants, French Almond Cookies

"Croquants are a wonderful and simple dessert you can do in about four minutes, with a couple of egg whites and some almonds. French art of patisserie is wonderfully intricate if you consider clairs au chocolat, croquembouche or Paris-Brest, but they also make things amazing in their simplicity, like croquants, quick, easy and foolproof. To be honest, I'm not entirely sure if these cookies should be crunchy or gooey. Croquant suggests the former, meaning precisely that, but I found the ones a bit less baked nicer. But either way, they soften considerably after a day in a tin."
