I haven't made this yet and would like to try. The recipe in the book

calls for whole almond but then later it says to blend all ingredients

together. Is that ground almond or should they be kept whole? Also it

says blanced filberts. That means taking the skins off? AND where do

I get a cheesecloth from? thanks!!

[Guest guest]

I don't have any whole almonds on hand. I have lots of almond flour.

Isn't that just ground almonds? Can I use that or should I use whole?

Thanks!

Also, do you just put your almonds in the blender whole. Does the

blender ground this up all on it's own? I can't imagine my blender

working this well. :-)

My Blender is just the cheapy basic one. Nothing special. I can't

imagine spending $300 for a blender. I still need to get a juicer &

Dehydrator too! Thanks
