How to Make Mocha Marmalade Shortbread Bars
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and ¾ cup granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time, then stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, ½ cup almond flour, and ¼ teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Stir in 1/2 cup of finely chopped dark chocolate (or 1 cup chocolate chips).
- Spread half of the dough evenly into the prepared pan.
- In a small bowl, gently mix 1/2 cup orange marmalade with 2 tablespoons of strong brewed coffee.
- Spread the marmalade mixture evenly over the shortbread layer.
- Top with the remaining shortbread dough, spreading evenly.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the bars cool completely in the pan before lifting them out using the parchment paper overhang.
- Cut into squares and serve. Enjoy!
