Lightly butter a 26cm loose-bottomed tart tin and dust with flour, tipping out any excess. For the pastry, whizz all the ingredients together in a food processor until the dough forms a ball.
Roll it out into a thin, even circle big enough to line the tin. Lift the pastry by rolling it around the rolling pin then unrolling it over the tin.
Don’t worry if the pastry cracks. It is so rich that you can just use your fingers
