Rasberries and almonds are two of my favorite things, and these were delicious! My boyfriend ate 5 the first time I made them, he said "Seriously, its the best thing I've ever eaten in my life." He loves dessert and this will added to my top recipes list. I followed the recipe exactly and lined the bottom of the pan w/a piece of square parchment paper I cut out, then with cooking spray and flour just to make sure they didn't stick. I also let them cool at least 4 hours and they didn't crumble at all when I removed them.
