How to Make Almond Brown Sugar Brownies
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a 3-quart saucepan, melt 1/2 cup shortening and 12 ounces of semi-sweet chocolate chips over low heat, stirring frequently until smooth.
- Remove from heat.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 cup packed light brown sugar, 1/2 cup almond paste (finely chopped), 1/2 cup sliced almonds, 2 large eggs, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the melted chocolate mixture to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Grease a 13x9x2 inch baking pan.
- Pour batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
- Bake for 20-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs. Start checking at 20 minutes, then every 2 minutes after.
- Do not overbake!
- Let cool in the pan for 6-8 minutes before cutting into 2x1 inch bars.
