How to Make Consiglia's Almond Bars

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugars until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  6. Stir in the almond extract and chopped almonds.
  7. Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan.
  8. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs.
  9. Let the bars cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares.
  10. Dust with powdered sugar before serving (optional).
