This is the classic cake that you eat and say ”how much good is it??” And until it is over now and then you take a piece … .. The recipe is from Maria Pia, Roberto’s mother, whom I thank for letting me know and taste it, and I curse for how much I eat!
Ingredients for a cake for 4-6 people
250 g of flour
250 g of sugar
250 g of almonds (with skin) coarsely chopped
200 g butter at room temperature
2 egg yolks
Mix everything with hands to blend the ingredients to obtain a compact dough, then lie it in a pan, fights well with your hands to level it.
At this point put it in the oven at 170 degrees for 30/35 minutes

Smell of Christmas? … And then let’s start from candies, the ones that make you gain weight just looking at them but they give us so much satisfaction!
Ingredients for 25-30 biscuits:
250 gr. almonds
200 gr. White sugar
2 egg whites
A pinch of salt
Raisins, candied orange, dried banana, and you like
Blanch the almonds in boiling water, peel and toast in oven grill for a few minutes. Blend them up to create a mixture, and add the sugar. Whip the egg whites with a pinch of salt. Add the egg whites into the mixture and work the dough with your hands. Place baking paper on a baking tray and create small balls with the dough(put them far enough otherwise they will melt and become a single biscuit). Above each ball put an almond, or orange or a slice of banana and so on .. Bake at 180 degrees for 7-8 minutes.

Cut the puff pastry to the size of your molds, and bake in oven for 10 minutes (put above it some dried beans otherwise it would swell during cooking).
