Orange Marmalade Linzer Torte
10 T butter, softened
1/3 c sugar
1 1/4 c flour
1 c ground almonds
1 tsp grated lemon rind
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1/8 tsp ground nutmeg
2 raw egg yolks
2 hard boiled egg yolks
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
1 (15.5-oz) jar low-sugar orange marmalade
egg white
sliced almonds
In mixing bowl with mixer at medium speed, combine the butter and sugar until fluffy. Add the flour, ground almonds, lemon rind, cinnamon nutmeg, raw egg yolks, boiled egg yolks and vanilla. Continue to mix until well combined. Chill for at least one hour.
Divide the chilled dough into two pieces. Roll out half the dough, and fit into a greased 8-inch square pan. Spread the orange marmalade over the bottom of the pan with a spatula.
With the remaining dough, make a lattice top to cover marmalade. Brush with beaten egg white and sprinkle sliced almonds on top. Bake at 350 degrees about 45 minutes, or until a pale golden color.
