I love almonds, and they really shine in these chewy bars, enthuses field editor Pat Habiger of Spearsville, Kansas.
Ingredients:
2 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
1 cup cold butter, cubed
filling:
2 cups sugar
1 cup chopped almonds
2 tablespoons king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour
4 eggs, lightly beaten
1/2 cup butter, melted
1/3 cup light corn syrup
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
Directions:
1. For the crust, combine flour and confectioners' sugar. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Press into a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking pan.
2. Bake at 350° for 10-15 minutes or until lightly browned. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine the sugar, almonds and flour; stir in the remaining filling ingredients.
3. Pour over crust. Bake at 350° for 25-30 minutes or until center is almost set. Cool on a wire rack. Cut into bars. Store in the refrigerator. Yield: 6-1/2 dozen.
