125g of caster sugar

Thermomix 5s speed 5

Add the remaining ingredients put on the kneading programme for 1 min.

whilst the thermomix is kneading, add a little water to make stiff dough. Be careful as after you add just a little water, the dough will still look dry. Do not add more water until a few seconds of kneading. Be carefull not to use too much water.

roll the dough and shape them into rectangles. Don't forget to make the traditional diamond pattern with the back of a knife.

Place them on well-greased baking-sheets and bake at 180 degrees Celsius for 10 minutes.

They should be crisp at the edges but still soft. Don't worry if they feel soft, they will keep on hardening. If you leave them too long, they will be too hard.

Remove them from the oven and spread them with honey, scattering almonds on top.

The almonds will stick to the honey.
