Steps:
- Whizz the flour, butter and a pinch of salt in a food processor until it forms fine crumbs. Tip into a bowl, add 4 tablespoons cold water and mix until it comes together. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead into a ball. Roll out to a large flat circle - large enough to line a 23cm round, deep, fluted tart tin. Prick the pastry in the bottom of the tin with a fork and transfer to the fridge for 30 minutes to chill.
- Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 200°C/fan180°C/gas 6. Line the tart with baking paper and baking beans, place on a baking sheet and cook for 15 minutes. Remove the paper and beans and bake for a further 5 minutes or until pale golden.
- Meanwhile, put the almonds, cream, sugar, whisky and a pinch of salt into a medium, heavy-based pan. Stir over a low heat until the sugar has dissolved. Increase the heat slightly and simmer, stirring frequently, for 20 minutes or until the mixture thickens and turns a pale gold. Remove from the heat.
- Reduce the oven temperature to 180°C/fan160°C/gas 4. Pour the filling into the pastry case and bake for a further 10 minutes or until golden - it won't be fully set until cooled. Cool in the tin slightly, drizzling with a little more whisky while still hot. Carefully transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Cut the tart into slices and serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of crème fraîche, if you like.

BEST TOFFEE EVER - SUPER EASY
Chocolate and almonds top off a rich buttery toffee. A simple recipe that you could easily remember and whip up any time. I always get compliments and requests for more. Use any type of nut that you like in place of the almonds.

Steps:
- In a large heavy bottomed saucepan, combine the butter, sugar and salt. Cook over medium heat, stirring until the butter is melted. Allow to come to a boil, and cook until the mixture becomes a dark amber color, and the temperature has reached 285 degrees F (137 degrees C). Stir occasionally.
- While the toffee is cooking, cover a large baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper.
- As soon as the toffee reaches the proper temperature, pour it out onto the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle the chocolate over the top, and let it set for a minute or two to soften. Spread the chocolate into a thin even layer once it is melted. Sprinkle the nuts over the chocolate, and press in slightly. Putting a plastic bag over your hand will minimize the mess.
- Place the toffee in the refrigerator to chill until set. Break into pieces, and store in an airtight container.

- Place toffee bits in the bottom of the prepared pie crust, then place the almonds on top. Pour the pie filling over the top and let the pie sit for a few minutes to allow the almonds to naturally rise to the top. (It’s important the toffee goes in before the almonds because it will weigh the almonds down if it goes in on top of them.)
