Delicious - Almond Slices

Since Christmas is just around the corner, I thought I'd share a SUPER easy yet DELICIOUS holiday treat! Perfect for potlucks, work parties, etc. these little babies are always gobbled up.

It is my pleasure to present to you..........

Almond Slices!

It really doesn't get any easier than this recipe. 

In fact, most of you probably already have the necessary ingredients in your pantry, so there really is no excuse NOT to make these.

Here's what you need:

1 cup butter

1 cup brown sugar

1 tsp vanilla extract

almond slices

graham wafer squares

Step One:

Line a 9x12' pan with graham wafer squares. You may have to break some wafers to fit into corners and edges. 

Step Two: 

Sprinkle as many almond slices on top of wafers as you like. As you can see, I like a LOT of almonds. ummmm. 

Step Three: 

Set oven to 350. Melt butter in a pot over medium heat. Add brown sugar and whisk together. Allow mixture to bubble for a few minutes then remove from heat and stir in vanilla. Alternatively, you could use almond extract instead for extra almondy slices.

Step Four:

Pour the buttery, sugary mixture over the almond covered wafers and pop into the oven until it is all bubbly (about 7 minutes)

I was distracted by a toddler with boots on her hands and left mine in longer. 

This is what happens when you do that:

Don't let this happen because take it from me, getting sugar off your oven SUCKS!

Step Five:

Cool completely and ENJOY!
