Every year, I have a list of holiday treats that I make. One of those treats includes my Grandmother’s recipe for Almond Bars, otherwise known as Desperation Cake. I have no idea where the name Desperation Cake comes from, but that is ok. To me, it will always be called that.
These bars are moist and the easiest bars ever to make with only 5 ingredients and ONE bowl.

I’m making your White Chocolate Cherry Shortbread Cookies for Christmas Eve dinner! Wish me luck! These might be next on the list 😉
Thanks for the recipe!
I think I just might try these 🙂
Haha I wonder why it’s called desperation cake!!
