Almond Cream recipe  
Ingredients:  
125g Butter
200g (1 cup) Sugar
100g (1,1/4 cup)  Almond Meal
20g (2Tbsp) Flour
100g Shallow bowl of Sliced Almonds.
1 Egg
Icing Sugar for Dusting


Warm the butter till it softens, mix in the sugar.

Once mixed and creamy, sift in the almond meal and flour.

Mix by hand or in a standard mixer until it gets nicely incorporated.

Halfway through mixing add the egg.

Let it cool off in the fridge for 10-15min.

Preheat Oven to 180°
Cut the day old croissants in half horizontally and give a good hearty spread of the Almond Cream on the bottom half of the croissants.

Put back together and use the rest of the Almond cream on top of the croissants to give the sliced almonds something to stick to.

Dunk the top cream part of the croissants into a bowl of Sliced Almonds and get a good amount stuck to the cream.

Place croissants evenly on an oven tray.
Cook at 180° for 15 min or until sliced almonds get golden brown.
Leave to cool for 10 min. Dust with icing Sugar and serve.
