    | 1. Put ground almonds or coconut, baking powder, sugar and vanilla in a large bowl and mix well (traditionally with your hand). Slowly incorporate the eggs until a firm paste has been achieved. | 2. Make small balls from the dough - slightly larger than a malteser or olive. Roll each ball in the chopped flaked almonds or coconut and coat well. | 3. Place the mchewek balls on a baking sheet which has been greased and lightly floured. Put 1/4 a glace cherry on the top in the centre of each mchewek. | 4. Cook in a preheated oven at 170c for approximately 12 minutes or until almonds have turned a pale golden colour. | 5. Allow to cool before placing in small bun/sweet cases (optional). | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
