Almond Tea "Cake"




Source of Recipe


internet


List of Ingredients




3/4 cup butter or margarine
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 eggs
1 1/4 cups flour
1 pinch salt
1 Tablespoon almond extract (yes, that's right!)
slivered almonds

Recipe



Preheat oven to 350ºF.

Melt butter and then add sugar in a mixing bowl. Beat in eggs one at a time. Add extract. Add flour and salt, mixing well. Pour batter into a large cast-iron skillet (9-11") that has been lined with foil. Sprinkle with almonds.

Bake for 30 minutes. Cool completely and remove foil.

Posted by: DorothyR_in_Malibu: Oh - I just love, love, LOVE this recipe! They are so easy, have a divine almond taste and fantastic texture. The amount of extract may
seem surprising, but let me assure you it works perfectly in these chewy, sweet bars. A 9" square pan may be used. The batter (more like dough) won't stretch farther than that. It also does NOT rise up in the pan, but remains flattish, like a torte...more dense even, more chewy. It will take 35 or so minutes.
