Preparation steps

1.
Heat the oven to 160°C/140°C fan/325°F/gas 3.
2.
Put the biscuits into a food processor and blend to fine crumbs. Pour in the melted butter and mix briefly using the pulse button. Press the mixture over the bottom and sides of a 22cm pie plate or tart tin. Bake in the oven for 10 minutes. Remove and cool.

Beat in the egg yolks and the remaining butter. Return to the pan and cook over a very low heat stirring all the time until thickened. Pour into the pie dish and chill.
