1 1/2 sticks butter, softened
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 tsp almond extract
1 1/2 cups flour
1/8 tsp salt
1/4 cup apricot jam
1/3 cup sliced almonds
Powdered sugar for dusting
Prehead oven to 350 degrees. Have ready an ungreased 9" springform pan or a tart pan with a removable bottom.
Beat the butter and sugar on medium speed in mixer until light and fluffy. Add almond extract and beat on medium speed for 30 seconds to blend well.
In a small bowl, whisk together flour and salt. Add to butter mixture and beat on low speed just until blended.
Press dough into pan. Spread jam evenly over the dough to within an inch of the edge. Sprinkle almonds evenly over the top.
Bake for 40-50 minutes until golden brown. Remove from oven and let cool completely on a wire rack.
Remove the sides from the pan, dust with powdered sugar before serving.
