75 g unsalted butter (2 3/4 ounces) |
200 g ground almonds (7oz) |
200 g sugar (7oz) |
150 ml single cream (5 fl oz) |
8 almonds, chopped |
10 pistachio nuts, chopped |
Directions:
1. Melt the butter in a heavy based saucepan. Stir well. 2. Add in the ground almonds, sugar and cream . Stir well. Reduce heat and stir constantly for 10-12 minutes, scraping the base of the saucepan. 3. Increase the heat until the mixture turns a little darker in colour. 4. Transfer the almond mixture to a large, shallow serving dish and smooth the top with the back of a spoon. You want the mixture to be around 1/4 inch thick as a minimum. 5.
