- Mix flour and baking powder in a large bowl. Add 200g sugar, vanilla sugar and salt; mix together. Add butter and egg; knead into a smooth dough. Chill for 1 hour or overnight.
- Wash plums, cut in half, remove stones and cut in half again (don't cut all the way through).
- Preheat oven to 180 C / Gas 4. Grease a baking tray with butter.
- Roll out the pastry on a floured work surface and line the bottom and sides of the baking tray with the dough.
- Mix 2 tablespoons sugar with 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon. Set aside.
- Lay quartered plums side by side onto the dough. If the plums are very small, arrange them in such a way that they overlap. Dot with butter and sprinkle with cinnamon sugar and almonds, if using.
- Bake in preheated oven for about 30-40 minutes.
- Remove tray bake from oven and allow to cool slightly. Cut into pieces and serve warm or cold.

What a crumbly mess. I followed the recipe to the tee, but the result was a very crumbly, messy shortbread cookie with plums on top. It tasted good, but really wasn't worth the bother. - 12 Oct 2018 (Review from Allrecipes US | Canada)
