      Title: Coffee Crunch Bars
 Categories: Cookies, Snacks, Desserts, Nuts, Chocolate
      Yield: 48 servings
 
      2 c  All purpose flour
    1/2 ts Baking powder
    1/4 ts Salt
      1 c  + 2 tb unsalted butter; room
           - temp
  1 1/4 c  (firm packed) dark brown

      1 c  Semisweet chocolate chips
    1/2 c  Sliced almonds
 
  The coffee and toffee flavors of this crunchy dessert are heightened
  by the dark brown sugar and espresso powder. This version is an
  adaptation of Leah ReichAs recipe, which was a variation on her
  grandmotherAs recipe.
  
  Preheat oven to 325XF. Whisk first 3 ingredients in medium bowl to
  blend.
  
  Using electric mixer, beat butter and sugar in another medium bowl
  until blended, about 2 minutes. Add espresso powder and almond
  extract; beat 1 minute. Stir in flour mixture in 3 additions, mixing
  until just absorbed after each addition. Stir in chocolate chips and
  almonds (dough will be thick).
  
  Turn dough out onto ungreased rimmed baking sheet. Using hands, press
  dough into 12-inch square. Pierce all over with fork at 1-inch
  intervals.
  
  Bake until edges are lightly browned and beginning to crisp, 45 to 50
  minutes. Cool on sheet 1 minute. Cut into 48 bars. Immediately
  transfer to rack; cool (bars will crisp as they cool).
  
  DO AHEAD: Can be made 5 days ahead. Store in airtight container at
  room temperature.
