Toffee Almond Bars

Crust:
1 box of Pillsbury yellow cake mix
1/2 c. unsalted butter, softened
1 large egg

Filling
1 14 oz. can of sweetened condensed milk (I tend to put only 90% of the can in the mix - these bars are very rich)
1 t. vanilla extract
1 large egg
8 oz. toffee bits
1 c. sliced, slivered or chopped almonds

Mix the yellow cake mix, butter and egg together and press into the bottom of a well buttered 9 x 13 inch pan (I like to line mine with parchment paper instead). Bake at 350 F for 7 minutes (the crust will not look done).

Next, mix the sweetened condensed milk, vanilla extract, 1 egg, toffee bits and the almonds. Pour over the warm crust and bake at 350 F for 24 to 30 minutes until the top looks slightly golden brown. Cool before cutting.

I found this recipe on the Alpine Berry blog while searching for a bar cookie that had a yellow cake crust. Her blog can be found here.
