  5. Stir through 25g melted and cooled butter, then stir well until smooth.
  6. Drop teaspoons of the mixture onto the baking paper at least 10cm apart and smooth into very thin circles (about 8cm diameter) with the back of a spoon. Sprinkle each with a few flaked almonds.
  7. Bake for around 6 minutes until pale golden. Take out of the oven and cool for a second, then lift gently with a palette knife and lay over a rolling pin to form a curved shape. When firm, cool on a wire rack.
