I've been making it for years because there's no French pastry shop around. This year I made Mary Berry's recipe and it's the best one yet. The "knocking up" technique was new to me. I highly recommend this recipe to home bakers.

Enjoy! Those cakes can be beautiful to look at ... I'll bet they're wonderful to savor.
I've seen them made on videos. I love to cook, but I'm not a baker, so I've never attempted one. (Maybe broadening my horizons into doing some baking would be a good New Year resolution.) I'm curious to learn what the knocking up" technique is. I guess I'll go make an appeal to the Google gods.

Lol. Knocking up is making small cuts in the edge of the pastry so it rises better. I have no idea where they got the name. If you like almond this recipe is divine.
