Ingredients

  • bunNonstick cooking spray
  • 1 1/2 cups plus 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) butter, melted
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon almond extract
  • 1/2 cup sliced almonds with skins

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 10-inch cast-iron skillet with aluminum foil and spray the foil with cooking spray.

In a large mixing bowl, stir 1 1/2 cups of the sugar into the melted butter. Beat in the eggs one at a time. Sift the flour and salt onto the batter. Add the flavoring and stir well. Pour the batter into the skillet. Top with sliced almonds and the remaining 2 tablespoons sugar. Bake until slightly brown on top, about 35 minutes. Cool the shortbread in the skillet. When cool, use the foil to lift the shortbread from the skillet; remove the foil before serving.

    These are so good and could not be simpler. My 6 year old granddaughter loves to help make them and my son in law steals them. I have started doing double batches so he can take more home.

    This is delicious! I took the advice in the reviews and heated up the middle of the skillet on the stove burner before pouring the batter in and mine came out perfectly with just the right amount of crust. I love almond extract so I added 1½ tsp. and it was just right for me. It had a brownie-like texture and is just a tiny bit chewy. Absolute perfection! Everyone loved it and I will make again and again. Great take-along dish.
