Almond Bars!

One of my most favorite tastes EVER is almond! Anything with marzipan or amaretto immediately grabs my attention! So this little gem of a recipe jumped out at me. It's quick to throw together and always gets raves... if you like almonds. :)

Almond Bars
4 eggs
2 c. sugar
1 c. butter (salted), melted
2 c. flour
2 1/2 tsp. almond extract
Sliced almonds (optional)

1.  In a mixing bowl, beat eggs and sugar until lemon-colored.
2.  Add butter, flour and extract; mix well.
3.  Spread into a greased 9x13 pan, and sprinkle sliced almonds on top. Bake at 325 degrees for 30-35 minutes or until toothpick inserted near center comes out clean. Cool on wire rack. (Recipe suggests sprinkling with powdered sugar, but I omit that and just go for the sliced almonds).
My mouth is watering!
