- Cream together the almond extract, butter and both sugars in a large bowl

- Pour the whole pot of glace cherries into a small bowl and cut them up smaller with a knife.
- Add into the bowl the flour and ground almonds along with the chopped cherries
- Grate the marzipan over the top to add some extra almond flavour!
- Preheat the oven to gas mark 2/ 150C. Line two large baking trays with greaseproof paper.
- Mix everything together with your hands until you make a dough. This is one to roll your sleeves up for!
- Roll the dough into small balls around the size of a golf ball and place onto a baking tray
- Using the back of your hand push them down to flatten slightly
- Sprinkle a few flaked almonds onto each biscuit
- Bake in the oven for 30-35 minutes. You may need to rotate halfway to ensure equal cooking!
- Wait until the biscuits have cooled slightly to make the icing. Then mix together 125g of icing sugar with another splash of almond extract and then enough water to make it into a smooth icing consistency.
BakeWell's legendary Hot Cross Buns are still going to be made in these unprecedented times. If you want them, please order in ADVANCE, and we will arrange delivery. Once the dough is chilled, remove it from the refrigerator. Roll the cookie dough into balls and very gently press down with your hand to flatten each ball of cookie dough slightly (make sure not to flatten them completely, just slightly). I just couldn't resist making them - because the idea of the flavours of a Bakewell tart put into a Blondie is just an all round win in my opinion!
