Ingredients
Scale
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 2 large eggs (room temperature)
- 1 teaspoon almond extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour (sifted)
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 cup sliced almonds (for topping)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
- Melt the unsalted butter in a medium saucepan over low heat. Remove from heat and mix in granulated and brown sugars until glossy.
- Allow the mixture to cool slightly before adding eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in almond extract.
- In a separate bowl, combine flour and baking powder; gradually fold into the wet mixture until just combined—do not overmix.

- Bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Let cool before slicing.
