These very easy but very impressive nutty Italian bites are perfect to give as a gift to friends or family this Christmas.
Makes 10-12 slices
Ready in 50 minutes
1. Preheat the oven to 160°C/fan140°C/gas 3. Line the base of 15cm square tin with rice paper. In a large bowl, combine all the nuts and the cranberries. Add the flour and spices and mix well. Put the sugar and honey in a large saucepan over a low heat and dissolve slowly. Continue cooking until it turns a light caramel colour. Pour over the nut and flour mixture and mix very well. (Don't worry if the mixture is very thick; be patient – it will come together.)
2. Spoon the mixture into the tin and press down well to make sure it is level, then bake for 25-30 minutes. Leave to cool slightly, then turn out on a wire rack and leave until cold. Cut into slices.
3. To assemble your gift: arrange the panforte slices in a box layered with sheets of rice paper. It will keep for up to two weeks.
