Almond Sheet Cake Recipe - My husband and I first tried this dessert at a family function last year Fourth of July. Since then I’ve been waiting very patiently for a second appearance. We both could’ve sworn they were called almond bars and made by Uncle Jeffrey, so finding the recipe would be a breeze, but when we brought it up no one seemed to know what we were talking about!
I was hell-bent on finding this recipe, the bars were unforgettable! After some digging, a few days, and help from the whole family we finally found it! Almond Sheet Cake by Celeste Lewis. It tastes like a lighter, white version of a Texas Sheet Cake. I’d love to share the recipe with you, they are worth every caloric bite.
