Place the nuts in a food processor and pulse until finely ground. Add matcha powder and mix. In another bowl, lightly beat the egg white.
Add a quarter of the raw egg to the powdered almonds and process until it's completely incorporated. Add a little more of the egg white and process again. Keep adding the egg white, a little at a time, until the marzipan comes together in a clump. You might not use up all of the egg white. Be careful not to add too much, so that the marzipan doesn't become too sticky.
Christmas Marzipan Cookies
Begin with separating the egg white from the yolk and lightly beating the egg white.
Break 8 oz. marzipan into small pieces in a medium bowl. Add powdered erythritol, ground macadamia, almond flour, almond extract, and egg white. Using your hands, combine the ingredients into a dough. It will be quite sticky.
Wrap the dough in parchment paper and refrigerate for an hour.
Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C) and line a baking pan with parchment paper. Using a fork, beat the egg yolk with a tsp. of water.
Roll the dough into 30 small balls. Place them on the baking pan. Press 3 almond halves evenly around each cookie.
Brush each cookie with the egg yolk. Bake for 20 minutes. Transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy!
