250g plain flour
50g ground almonds
75g caster sugar
Pinch salt
180g butter, cubed
1 egg
1 egg yolk
1 cup cream
2 Tbs runny honey

1. In the bowl of a food processor put the flour, almonds, sugar and salt and whiz for a few seconds to combine. Add the butter and after 5 seconds add the egg and yolk. Stop the machine as soon as the mix starts to hold together. Form the dough into a cylinder, wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour.
2. Preheat oven to 180C, remove the dough from the fridge, line a tray with baking paper. Remove the plastic wrap and cut slices into circles about 5mm thick. Place on baking tray allowing some room for spreading. Bake for 10 minutes or until starting to colour, cool a little then transfer to a rack.
3. Whip the cream and fold in the honey. To serve, layer a biscuit with cream then berries and repeat, dusting with icing sugar to finish.
