Burnt Almond Torte?

Asking for a friend, because I am not crazy enough to try to make one -- but it's suprisingly hard to find a recipe for a Burnt Almond Torte -- Do you have one you'd be willing to share?

Well, there's this one, which isn't quite the famous Prantl's of Pittsburgh one, but it's pretty good. Personally, I make a burnt almond torte that is a variation of the kind of very light, creamy cheesecake that you find in the best Baltimore Italian bakeries, but loaded with Amaretto, and topped with roasted almond & coconut glaze, singed with a blowtorch, somewhat like creme brulee.

Alas, she found that one. Just casting about for some more options. Thanks all the same.
