Brisas do Lis (almond flour, eggs, & sugar yummy!)

Conventual sweets are sweets made in convents and monasteries by nuns or monks characterized by large amounts of sugar and egg yolks, but often also almond. Basically, it is a big portion of the Portuguese sweets. https://www.portugalthings.com/portuguese-conventual-sweets/ note: in this recipe the almond flour floats to the top; so when you unmold the desert the almond crust is on the bottom if you want a thinner more delicate crust just use less almond flour.
