Introduction
This is from Rachel's Favourite Food For Friends by Rachel Allen. I covered the baking shortbread with greaseproof paper half way through, as my oven would have burned the almonds on top. Hope you enjoy it!

I love this recipe, I have been making it every Christmas for the last five years or so and it is a welcome addition to mince pies and the rest of my "Christmas repertoire". Very easy to make too.
Really good, and a nice alternative to mince pies. I also made it with lemon curd instead of mincemeat, the children loved it!
