Comments:
These luscious toffee and almond treats have a buttery oatmeal/brown sugar cookie bottom with a rich almond vanilla filling. Cut into squares, triangles or bars, and serve them with a warm beverage, or for the kids with a big glass of milk. Wrap well in plastic wrap and send one or two off to school with your children for a mid-day treat.

Ingredients:

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup rolled oats (old-fashioned or quick cooking)
1 cup packed brown sugar
1 tsp. baking soda
1/2 cup butter

1/3 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup butter
1/4 cup whipping cream or evaporated milk
1 1/2 cups sliced almonds
1 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract

Instructions:

Yum! This is a great recipe, but a little too sweet. Next time i will try to reduce the amount of sugar in the filling and/or cut smaller portions so i don't feel sick after not being able to stop myself from having a second piece. I'm making these for my sons birthday. Great for adults too for nibbling on with coffee.
