Ingredients
- 5 oz/150 g butter,
- 3 tablespoons confectioner's sugar,
- 4 eggs,
- 8 oz/250 g flour,
- peel and juice from 1/2 lemon,
- 1 teaspoon vanilla,
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda,
- 5 oz/150 g sugar,
- 5 oz/150 g ground walnuts,
- 10 oz/300 g marmelade or preserves without syrup
Directions
Mix the butter with 3 tablespoons confectioner's sugar, add the yolks one by one.
Mix well. Add juice and grated lemon peel, baking soda and vanilla and knead with the flour.
Roll into a finger thick sheet and place in a pan.
Bake at low heat until the sheet starts to rise and gets a crust.
Then remove from the oven and quickly spread a layer of marmelade or preserves, topping with the whipped egg whites which have been mixed with 5 oz/150 g sugar and ground walnuts.
Put in the oven again and bake.
When done, let it cool in the pan.
Then cut into squares or rectangles.
