Combine flour, salt and sugar in a stand mixer. Mix slowly until well-combined. Add butter and beat until small balls of butter remain, for a couple of minutes. You want the cold butter balls to remain. Don't over-mix until the butter is not visible! Add the egg and 1 tablespoon of heavy cream. Mix slowly. Slowly add additional cream until the mixture starts to form larger pieces of dough. Stop as soon as it starts to come together into large pieces. Remove dough and place in plastic wrap in disk. Refrigerate for at least 45 minutes. Remove dough after chilled and pre-heat oven to 350 F. Working quickly to keep cool, roll out dough to desired thickness. I prefer about 1/4". Cut out for tart mold(s). Be sure they will fit tightly, pressed into corners/seams. Press into mold(s). Poke holes into dough bottom with fork. This prevents the tarts from puffing while baking. Place in freezer until harder and set. Make filling. Continue with instructions below: FRANGIPANE: Combine almonds/almond flour, sugar and 1 T flour from top of ingredients list. Pulse in food processor until fine. Add butter, egg, vanilla, salt. CARAMEL: Combine 1 cup sugar and 1/3 c water in saucepan over medium-high heat. Boil until medium amber color. Mix in heavy cream and remove from heat. After the bubbling stops-- add butter, salt, vanilla, amaretto. Fill shells about 1/3 with filling. Bake until shells are golden and filling firm to touch, about 8-12 minutes. Remove and allow to cool. Top filled tarts with nuts of choice and top with caramel mixture. Let cool and enjoy!
