1 Preheat the oven to 170°C/Gas Mark 3. Rub a little butter around the inside of a 18cm (7in) square cake tin or insert a baking liner.

2 Put the butter and sugar into a bowl and beat together until light and fluffy. Mix in the flour and ground almonds.

3 Using your hands, gather everything together, pressing it into a smooth ball of dough.

4 Press the dough into the prepared tin and smooth the top.

5 Using a fork, prick holes all over the surface, pressing right through the dough. Cut across the tin several times, through the dough, to form 18 rectangular fingers (across in 3 and down in 6). Bake in the oven for 40-45 minutes.
