Ingredients:

  • 4 eggs
  • 2 cups sugar
  • 2 1/2 teaspons almond extract
  • 1 cup cups sliced almonds (increase or decrease as desired)
  • 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar (optional)

Directions:

  1. Beat together the eggs and sugar until lemon-colored. Add the butter, flour, and almond extract; mix well.
  2. Spread the batter in an even layer on a buttered 13x9-inch baking pan. Sprinkle the top of the batter with sliced amonds if you wish; otherwise leave the top as is.
  3. Bake at 325° for 30 to 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  4. Remove pan from the oven and dust the top with a light sprinkling of confectioner's sugar, if you wish. Leave cookies in the pan to cool completely.
  5. When cooled, cut into bars. (I usually cut 9 vertical rows and 4 horizontal rows, to get 36 bar cookies.).
