This is really tasty. The dough was really sticky and I was tempted to add more flour, but I'm so glad that I didn't as it turned out absolutely delicious. I only had slivered almonds so I used those instead. The recipe didn't say how long it needed to cook for, but in my oven it took 45 minutes. Yum!
