Almond Shortbread

This is not your normal shortbread. The finished product is chewy and almondy and delish!

 ¾ cup butter melted

1 ½ Sugar

2 eggs whisked

1 tsp almond extract

1½ cups flour

¼ tsp salt

1 T corn starch

½ C sliced almonds

1½ T sugar

Preheat oven to 350°

Melt butter and let it cool slightly. Stir in sugar. Stir in eggs and extract. 

Mix the dry ingredients then mix with wet. Don't over mix. 

Line a skillet (cast iron is good, but I don’t have a medium sized one so I just use a regular frying pan) with parchment paper sprayed with cooking spray. Put mixture in skillet, sprinkle almonds on top, sprinkle 1½ T sugar on that. 

Bake for 30-35 minutes until edges are brown and center raises. Leave in skilket for 45 minutes after removing from the oven.
