    3/4  cup           ground amaretti
 50      g             sugar

1.  Combine the sugar, ground almonds and amaretti.

2.  Gradually stir in the beaten egg, adding just enough egg so the mixture
holds together; don't let it become too wet to hold its shape.

3.  Form the mixture into 12 balls approx. the size of walnuts.

4.  Butter a shallow baking dish. Halve the peaches and remove the pits,
placing the halves cut-side up in the dish.

5.  Press a ball of the almond mixture into the cavity of each peach half.
Dot the tops with butter, and drizzle marsala over all.

6.  Bake at 190 C for around 30 mins. until the almond mixture is golden
and crusty. Serve warm or chilled.

Difficulty    : easy.
