Traditional dessert of Catalonia ( Spain ) that my sis made.

- 500g of white sugar
- 100 g monato (or 200g of sweet potatoes )
For scattering:

- chocolate
Directions:
- Mix ground almonds and white suhar together in bowl.
- Peel the potatoes and cut them into quarters. Boil them in a saucepan until they are cooked. Drain water and mash them with a fork.
- Add mashed potatoes to almonds and sugar and mix well until you get a lump of dough ( do not add water! The mass will be join together itself).
- Pre-heat oven to 175C. Grease cookie sheets. Spoon out dough with a teaspoon. Roll dough into small balls in your palms. Then roll the balls in pine nuts, chocolate or anything you like. Brush each ball with a bit of egg white. Place on greased cookie sheet.
