Danish Tarts With Sliced Almonds And Chocolate In Honor Of Danish National Day
- 2 1/2 cups wheat flour
- 2/3 cup butter cold, cut in small pieces
- 1/2 cup hazelnut powder
- 1 egg
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla sugar
- 5 tablespoons honey
- 7 tablespoons butter
- 5/8 cup sugar
- 2 1/8 cups flaked almonds
- 1 3/16 cups dark chocolate
- In a bowl, mix the ingredients for the dough with your fingertips.
- Place the 2/3 of the dough in a pie mold or mini molds, and flatten with the palm of your hand for a large pie, and with fingers for mini pies.
- This is not a dough to spread with a rolling pin, it will break up.
- Cool for 1 hour.
- Preheat oven to 200 degrees Celsius.
- In a saucepan heat the honey, add the butter and sugar, and then the sliced almonds.
- Cook for 5 minutes, stirring.
- Pour over the dough.
- Bake 20 minutes for a large pie, and 15 minutes for the mini pies. Watch carefully so the pie doesn't brown too much (it would be a little too caramelized then).
- Cool.
- Melt the chocolate, brush the top of the pie with chocolate, and let harden for an hour.
- This is a mini dessert tart, very similar to a Florentin, and very pleasant to serve with coffee.
