• 4 yolks
• 125 g butter
• 125 g fine sugar

• +/- 2 packets McVities Rich Tea biscuits
• 1 cup strong coffee

Preparation

• In a bowl place the yolks, butter (soft or into little cubes) and the almond essence, bled these very well with a mixer, until it forms a whitish cream, once it gets to that point add while still mixing the almond, mix these very well until all the ground almond is all blended in.
• Then refrigerate it. Then get the biscuits and one by one dip them in the (almost cold) coffee for about 3 seconds each, don't leave them too long or they will become soft and break apart, and also if soft is impossible to spread the cream.
• Arrange them on a plate or tray one in the centre and six surrounding the centre one, then apply a thin layer of cream, repeat the process until the cake is around 5-6 biscuits high, and finally cover the whole of the cake outside in the same cream, and sprinkle the almond flakes on top, them refrigerate until very cold and firm.
