- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 34 cup sugar
- 2 egg yolks
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 2 teaspoons lemon zest (finely grated)
- 1 12 cups flour
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 14 teaspoon ground cloves
- 14 teaspoon salt

- 1 14 cups slivered almonds (blanched and ground)
- 1 cup seedless red raspberry jam
- Preheat oven to 350F
- Spray 2 nonstick cupcake pans.

- Add sugar and beat until thoroughly incorporated.

- Sift dry ingredients together, then stir into creamed mixture.
- Stir in almonds.
- Using a 2 tablespoon scoop, place one scoop of batter into each cupcake pan.
- Pat the batter gently to cover bottom of each cup.
- Do not indent the dough or the jam will leak through.
- Place 2 teaspoons of jam in the centre of each cupcake.
- Bake for about 15 minutes, until the batter around the jam has risen and turned golden.
- After the pans have been removed from the oven, use a sharp knife to loosen the edges of each tart.
- Allow tarts to cool in the pan until cool to the touch, at least 1 hour.
- Using a kitchen knife, gently lever the tarts out on to cookie racks and allow to cool completely.
- You may serve them plain or sprinkle with powdered sugar and a scoop of ice cream.
