Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Cut a 3/4-inch wide strip off each side of the pastry and reserve. Roll out the pastry sheet on a lightly floured work surface to a 10-inch square. Brush the edges of the square with the egg. Working with 1 strip at a time, stand the strips along the edges of the pastry square and crimp where they meet. You want to create a shallow box, where the pastry square is the base and the 4 strips are the walls. Overlap the strips at the corners, stretching them if necessary to complete the walls of the box. Brush the border with the egg. Pierce the center of the pastry all over with fork. Bake until the pastry is golden brown, about 20 minutes. Transfer to a rack and cool completely.
- Using an electric mixer, beat the cream until soft peaks. With the mixer still running, gradually add the sugar and continue to beat until stiff peaks. Add the liqueur and beat until just well blended; be careful not to overmix or the whipped cream will turn into a buttery consistency and start to separate. Using a large spatula, fold in the nuts. Spoon the cream mixture into the prepared pastry crust. Arrange the berries over the cream. Sift the cocoa powder over and serve.
- NOTE: You can use any fruit that's in season (orange segments, berries, plums, bananas, grapes). Blueberries make a good substitute for the raspberries, and sliced peaches or nectarines are delicious as well.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F /180 degrees C.
- Cream the butter well and then just stir in the sugar and ground almonds. (Don't over beat or the oil will come out of the ground almonds as it cooks.) Put a teaspoon of the mixture into 24 small patty tins, or divide between 2 by 7-inch sandwich tins. Bake until golden brown 10 to 30 minutes depending on the pans used.
- The tarts or tartlets are too soft to turn out immediately, so cool in the tins for about 5 minutes before turning out. Do not allow to set hard before removing to a wire rack or the butter will solidify and they will stick to the tins. If this happens pop the tins back into the oven for a few minutes so the butter melts and then they will come out easily.
- Just before serving, arrange whole raspberries on the base. Glaze with Red Currant Glaze and decorate with rosettes of Jersey cream.
- Melt the red currant jelly with the water in a small stainless steel saucepan. Stir gently, but do not whisk, or it will become cloudy. Cook it just for 1 to 2 minutes longer for the jelly to darken. Store any leftover glaze in an airtight jar and reheat gently to melt it before use.

They will keep for up to 2 days in the fridge.

Tips:
- To achieve a consistent size and shape for your raspberry stars, use a tablespoon to measure out the dough and a piping bag fitted with a star tip to form the stars.
- For a neater appearance, place the dough stars on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet before baking.
- Keep an eye on the baking time, as the raspberry stars can burn easily due to the sugar content. Bake them until the edges just start to brown.
- Let the raspberry stars cool completely before dipping them in melted chocolate. This will help the chocolate set properly and prevent it from smudging.
- Feel free to experiment with different variations of the recipe, such as using different types of nuts or berries, or adding a drizzle of flavored syrup or sprinkle of powdered sugar.

The almond raspberry stars are a delightful and elegant treat that is perfect for any occasion.
