How to Make Mond Bars With Chocolate Ganache Rsc

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Line a 9x13 inch baking pan with Reynolds non-stick foil, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal.
  3. **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.
  4. Press the crumb mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared pan. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until lightly golden.
  5. **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.
  6. Pour the cream cheese filling over the hot crust.
  7. Bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the filling is set.
  8. Remove from oven and let cool completely.
  9. **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.
  10. Pour the ganache over the cooled filling and spread evenly.
  11. Sprinkle with ½ cup toasted sliced almonds.
  12. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before cutting and serving.
