Filling
Directions
In a food processor pulse together butter, flour, almond meal, and powdered sugar until you get a coarse sand consistency. Add the egg and sesame and work lightly until you get a rough dough. Press this into a 9 inch tart pan, coming about 1 inch up the sides if your pan is deep.
Mix all the ingredients together for your filling and spoon into the tart shell.
Bake at 350°F 35 minutes. Filling will be slightly liquid when the bake is done, and will set up when the tart cools.
Serve as is or with a dusting of powdered sugar.
