Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    Can substitute salted roasted cashew nuts for Marcona almonds.

    Come together very quickly and easily, added a drop of almond extract based on another note. 10 minutes had mine overly browned, 9 minutes were more ideal.

    Very easy and very, very fast, but not knock your socks off. The Marcona almond on the top was a nice, and noticeable touch, but the marconas in the dough were, in my view, indistinguishable from regular almonds, so you might save yourself some money by using those & adding salt to the dough and just topping with the marconas. For reasons I don't understand people sometimes pooh pooh almond extract, but frankly despite using good almond paste and almonds, this still could have used a drop or two of extract.
