Method
Steps
Step 1
For the proposed biscuit base, whisk flour, the measured 40 g dough sugar, baking powder and salt; rub in the measured 80 g cold dough butter.
Step 2
Stir in cold milk just until soft and cohesive, without kneading.
Step 3
Rest the soft dough briefly, then roll or shape to the thickness and form required by the specific dish.
Step 4
Simmer prunes in water until soft, drain excess liquid, mash and sweeten with the separate 70 g filling sugar, cinnamon and lemon. Cool until spreadable.
Step 5
Heat oven to 180 °C. Grease a 23 cm pan with the separate 15 g butter, place the rolled proposed biscuit dough in it and spread prune filling across the base.
Step 6
Bake about 35–40 minutes until edges golden and base cooked through. Cool fully before serving.
