Pop the almonds and sugar into a food processor and blitz for about 1 minute until it’s very finely textured. Add the egg whites, butter and almond essence. Process again until the mixture forms a ball – if it’s too wet at this point, you’ll need to add more ground almonds. Wrap the paste in plastic wrap and refrigerate until needed (it will last at least a month). Otherwise, simply freeze it.
