Prepare a 12-opening muffin tin with paper liners.
Whip cream until slightly stiff.
Add sugar, vanilla, and rum.
Continue to whip until cream holds in stiff peaks.
Fold in crushed cookies.
In another bowl, beat egg whites until stiff peaks form.
Gently fold the egg whites into the cream mixture.
Before serving, garnish each tortoni with almonds.
