How to Make Mond Bars With Chocolate Ganache Rsc
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Line a 9x13 inch baking pan with Reynolds non-stick foil, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal.
- **Crust:** In a large bowl, combine 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, ½ cup powdered sugar, ½ teaspoon salt, and 1 cup (2 sticks) cold unsalted butter, cut into cubes. Use a pastry blender or your fingers to cut the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Press the crumb mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared pan. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until lightly golden.
- **Filling:** In a separate bowl, beat together 8 ounces cream cheese (softened), ½ cup granulated sugar, and 1 teaspoon almond extract until smooth and creamy. Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
- Pour the cream cheese filling over the hot crust.
- Bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the filling is set.
- Remove from oven and let cool completely.
- **Chocolate Ganache:** In a heatproof bowl, place 8 ounces chopped dark chocolate. In a small saucepan, heat ½ cup heavy cream over medium heat until it just begins to simmer. Pour the hot cream over the chocolate and let it sit for a minute. Then, whisk gently until smooth and glossy.
- Pour the ganache over the cooled filling and spread evenly.
- Sprinkle with ½ cup toasted sliced almonds.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before cutting and serving.
