Expert Tips

You and your little helper can measure the ingredients the night before, so all you do is make and bake on serving day.

No almond extract on hand? Just use vanilla instead.

My grocery store was out of almonds so I bought unshelled almonds, shelled them at home and kind of slivered them at home. It wasn't that big a deal. The larger bits made a good crunch. My Valentine enjoyed these at home and took one to work until they were gone. So good with coffee!

Very nice recipe. Made these for Valentine's Day breakfast and we really enjoyed them. They have the lightness of a scone, but a little bit of crunch as well from the slivered Almonds. The hint of fruit in the center was a perfect add. Be sure to use a jam when making these. I will definately make again, and won't be waiting until next Valentine's day....
