Sugared Almonds for the garnish on my Almond Joy cupcakes for iron cupcakes tomorrow.

I took 2 cups of slivered almonds, mixed them with 6 Tbsp of sugar. In another bowl, I whisked one egg white until foamy and then stirred it into the nuts. I baked them at 300 degrees for about 25 minutes until the almonds were dry. I think these will sit pretty nicely with some toasted coconut atop my amaretto buttercream. mmmmmm.....
