Ingredients

• 3/4 cup softened butter
• 2 cups sugar
• 3 large eggs
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon almond extract
• 1 3/4 cups washed and stemmed fresh blueberries
• 2/3 cup chopped pecans
• Confectioners' sugar

Preparation

Step 1

Heat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl, cream butter with sugar for 5 minutes. Add eggs and beat another 2 minutes. Mix in flour and almond extract. Fold in blueberries and pecans until well combined.

Coat a 13 x 9-inch pan with cooking spray (and dust with flour, if desired). Spread batter evenly in pan and bake 45-50 minutes or until toothpick tests clean (except for blueberry juice). Cool on a wire rack. When cool, sprinkle with confectioners' sugar. Cut into bars of desired size.
