Amaretti & treacle tartlets

1 quantity Pâte sucrée (recipe on blog)

300g Golden Syrup
125g Amaretti biscuits (blitzed in a blender)
25g Flaked almonds, lightly crushed
1 egg
1 lemon
4 tbsp Amaretto
60g Blanched almonds
Icing Sugar for decorating

Preheat oven to 170
°C

Roll out the pastry out on a lightly floured surface.
Cut into 20 circles with a 7.5cm cutter. Put the rounds into 2 12-hole baking tins. Chill.

For the filling, gently heat the syrup to thin it, then add the crushed biscuits, flaked almonds, lemon zest & Amaretto. Stir in the beaten egg & then put the mixture in the pastry.

Bake for 10mins. Then sprinkle a few blanched almonds on each tartlet & return to the oven for another 5-10mins.

Once cooked leave them in the tins for 15mins before cooling on a wire tray.

Sprinkle over icing sugar to decorate.


Mmmnn.
