Steps:
- Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4 and line a 20cm square loose-bottomed cake tin with baking parchment. Tip the butter, sugar and a pinch of salt into a large bowl, and beat with an electric whisk until pale and fluffy. Add the flour, ground almonds and milk. Use a wooden spoon and then your hands to bring the mixture together to form a dough.
- Use your fingers to spread the shortbread dough over the bottom of the tin, right into the corners. Bake for 35 mins until golden.
- Meanwhile, prepare the lemon topping. Whisk the lemon juice and eggs together in a jug. In a bowl, combine the sugar, flour and zest. Strain the lemon mixture through a sieve onto the sugar mixture and whisk to combine.
- When the tin is cool enough to handle, wrap the outside tightly in foil - this will prevent the lemon mixture seeping out. Pour over the shortbread and return to the oven for 15 mins. Scatter over the almonds and bake for another 5 mins until the topping has set. Cool completely in the tin, then lift out, dust with icing sugar and cut into bars. Will keep in the fridge for up to 3 days.

Steps:
- In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Stir in the beaten egg and extract. Add the flour, ground almonds and lemon zest and mix until the dough comes together.
- Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead into a ball. Divide the dough in half and then roll each half into a log, about 1 1/2 inches in diameter. Wrap each log in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour (the dough can be frozen at this point for a later use).
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Remove the dough from the plastic wrap and slice into 1/4-inch-thick rounds. Place the cookies onto the prepared baking sheets and bake until golden brown at the edges, about 15 minutes. Let cool on the baking sheets for 3 or 4 minutes before transferring to wire cooling racks to cool completely, or just eat warm from the oven.

These cookies melt in your mouth and are not too sweet. I find that they are best with coffee or tea.

Steps:
- 1.In a food processor, pulse the almonds until they are a course crumb similar to panko.
- 2.Add cormeal, flour and salt to mixture and pulse 3-5 times more to combine it well with the almonds.
- 3. In a large bowl, beat together the butter and sugar. After it is creamed, add the extracts, juice and zest.
- 4. Add in the dry ingredients in 2-3 batches and beat until just mix. DO NOT OVERMIX!
- 5. Refrigerate the dough for 10-15 minutes. Five minutes before taking the dough out of the fridge, preheat over to 350 F degrees. Using a 2 tsp scoop drop 12-15 cookies onto a sheet and then flatten them slightly with a moist palm.Bake for 10-12 minutes.
- TIP: If your oven tends to burn things, I suggest lining your sheet with aluminum first and then parchment.

- Place the almonds in the bowl of a food processor and blitz until roughly ground. You don't want it as fine as ground almond meal, it should have some texture, like coarse breadcrumbs. Combine the almonds with the caster sugar, flour, baking powder, salt and lemon zest in a large bowl with a wooden spoon. Add the cubed butter and using your hands, toss it in the dry ingredients to coat, then use your fingertips to rub the butter into the dry ingredients until no large lumps remain and the mixture is damp and holds together when pressed. Pour in the eggs and using a wooden spoon mix until well incorporated. I find it easiest to turn the mixture out onto a board now and gently coax the mixture together, ensuring no dry spots of flour remain. Be as gentle and light handed as you can to keep the mixture from being overworked. Dust with a little extra flour if too sticky. Wrap the biscuit dough — baking paper works fine — and chill in the refrigerator for an hour.
- Dust your workbench with flour and roll out the chilled dough to approximately 5mm in thickness. Cut 6cm circles from the dough and transfer to the prepared trays, leaving plenty of space for them to spread as they bake. Any scraps can be pushed together, rerolled and cut into more biscuits until the dough has been used up. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes until light golden. Allow to cool completely then dust generously with icing sugar and serve. Biscuits will keep for up to a week in an airtight container.

- Using an electric mixer, cream together the butter and sugar until well combined and creamy. Scrape down the sides of the bowl.
- Add the salt and almond extract and mix on low speed to combine, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
- Add the almond flour in 3 separate additions, mixing on low after each addition until combined. The dough will be crumbly at first, but continue to mix on low speed and it will come together. Once the dough begins to stick together (see photo in the post above), stop mixing.
