50g ground almond

85g chewy toffees , roughly chopped

85g/3oz ready-to-eat dried apple chunks, roughly chopped

Method

Preheat the oven to fan 170C/conventional 190C/gas 5. Using an electric whisk, beat together the butter and sugar until pale and creamy.

Stir in the egg yolks, ground almonds, toffees, dried apple and flour. Mix well together then roll into walnut-sized balls.
