Richmond maids of honour

Method

1. Roll out the puff pastry very thinly on a well-floured surface. Use an 8.5cm biscuit cutter (or one a little bigger than the tartlet moulds) to cut out ten circles of pastry. Press the rounds into the tartlet moulds and chill in the fridge for 20 minutes.

2. Preheat the oven to 180C/gas 4.

3. Mix together the ground almonds, sugar and flour. Stir in the egg yolks, cream and orange flower water.

4. Drop spoonfuls of the almond mixture into the tartlet cases and smooth down a little with the back of the spoon. Bake for 20 minutes or until risen and golden. Maids of honour don’t keep well and are best eaten warm from the oven.
