Default Linzer Tart Help

a while back i had made Bo Friberg's recipe for a linzer tart. i had piped the dough out just like he said to and when it baked, the beautiful design on top of the tart spread together into almost a flat top. Here is the recipe. It sounds like there is too much butter by the way it spread. i was just very disappointed when it came out not as pretty. . has anyone made this recipe before? or have a good recipe that actually works?


Creaming method.
1 #6oz butter
1#4 oz sugar
3 eggs
1T Cocoa
2tsp cinnamon
1tsp cloves
1#cake flour
1#6oz ground nuts
1T lemon zest.

*for the dough that gets piped on the top, 2 extra oz of cake flour gets added.

thanks for any help!
