"Just a few comments on this recipe. The traditional recipe is with a "creme d'amande" where there is no apricot jam, just butter, almond powder, sugar, eggs and almond extract (you can also add orange blossom water and a bit of rhum). The secret is to have equal quantity of sugar, almond and butter. The alternative is frangipane, which is made of 2/3 of creme d'amande and 1/3 of "creme patissiere". Bon appetit!"
