- Preheat the oven to 180°C / Gas Mark 4.
- Beat together sugar, butter and extract. Add flours to make crumbs that stick together.
- Press the crumbs into the tin and cover the bottom, Chill for 15 minutes then cook for 12.
- Mix the butter and sugar together in a medium bowl until it is really soft and well combined. Then beat in the ground almonds and plain flour. Crack the egg in, add the amaretto liqueur, and then beat it hard so everything is combined. Remove the tin from the oven and add the almond filling, spreading it out evenly so it is nice and smooth on top.
