The first batch had soggy bottoms (see pic), which I blame in part on my sub par oven and tray, so I 'blind baked' the next lot. Basically just do the bottoms first on their own for about 15 mins with a roasting dish on top to keep them from cooking top down too quick. Then after that it was plain sailing. I do recommend the recipe, just be sure to blind bake.
Managed to make my own this year.
