Yield 36

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon ground cardamom
¼ teaspoon salt
½ cup milk
2 teaspoons instant coffee granules
¼ cup butter
1 cup white sugar
1 cup confectioners' sugar
1 egg
1 cup chopped almonds
3 cups confectioners' sugar
⅓ cup evaporated milk
1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Combine flour, baking powder, cardamom, and salt; set these dry ingredients aside.
  • Combine milk and instant coffee in saucepan, and heat at a medium low setting. Stir until coffee dissolves, and remove from the heat.
  • In a large bowl, cream the butter or margarine with the white sugar and 1 cup confectioners' sugar. Beat in the egg, and then beat in the coffee mixture. Gradually blend in the mixture of dry ingredients, and fold in the almonds.
  • Spread dough evenly in a 9 x 13 inch baking pan. Bake for 18-20 minutes at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C), or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pan on wire rack.
  • To Make Frosting: Put 1 cup of the confectioners' sugar in a mixing bowl. Beat in the evaporated milk and vanilla extract. Gradually beat in remaining 2 cups of confectioners' sugar. Continue beating until of desired consistency. If consistency is too thick, add a little more milk; if it is too thin, add more powdered sugar.
  • Frost the bars with the icing.

I'm not a big fan of coffee, but I still liked these bars. They were moist and flavorful, and the frosting was delicious. I would definitely make these again, even if I didn't add coffee to the batter.

I was a bit disappointed with these coffee bars. They were dry and crumbly, and the frosting was too sweet. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

These coffee bars were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think next time I would use less sugar in the frosting.
