Something for the left hand!!  It only makes sense, right?!  If you have a coffee in your right hand you need a goodie for the left!

(the willing model received an additional piece of delivered boterkoek!)

Baking was the name of the game we had 2 kinds of brownies, sweet maries, bark, muffins, monkey munch, peanut butter cookies and boterkoek.

Here is the recipe for Boterkoek:

1 lb butter, softened (do not use margarine)
2 cups white sugar
2 eggs
2 tsp almond extract
3 3/4 cups all purpose flour
2 tbsp coffee cream
3 tbsp slivered almonds

Preheat oven to 350.  Butter a 9X13 pan.  Soften butter in microwave but
do not melt.  Add butter to all other ingredients except coffee cream
and almonds.  Knead with hands until everything is mixed.  Pour batter
into prepared pan.  Brush with coffee cream and sprinkle with slivered
almonds.
Bake 35-45 minutes until the boterkoek is medium brown in colour.
Do NOT overbake.

Boterkoek macro’d-just because I can!
