Strawberry Almond Slice
150 g butter, softened
3/4cup Chelsea Soft Brown Sugar
1/2 cup Chelsea White Sugar
2 eggs
2 cups flour
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 cup sliced almonds
1 cup strawberry jam
Preheat oven to 180°C. Spray a 20 x 30 cm slice tin with non-stick baking spray and line with non-stick baking paper.
In a large bowl, beat together the butter, soft brown sugar and white sugar. Add the eggs and mix well. Mix in the flour, cinnamon and baking powder then the almonds. The dough will be crumbly but comes together when squeezed. Press half of this mixture into the base of the prepared tin. Using the back of a spoon, spread the jam over this base, leaving a small 1 cm border around the edge. Sprinkle the remaining mixture over the top, right to the edge and press down to form the top layer. Bake for 25 �?30 minutes until the top is golden brown. Cool in the tin then slice into portions.
