Directions:Combine butter and sugar in large bowl. Beat at medium speed, scraping bowl often, until creamy. Add eggs and almond extract; continue beating until well mixed. Reduce speed to low. Add flour and 1 cup ground nuts; beat until well mixed.
Divide dough into 8 equal parts. Roll each part into 8-inch log on lightly floured surface. Wrap in plastic food wrap; refrigerate until firm (2 hours or overnight).
Heat oven to 350°. Place 4 logs onto large ungreased cookie sheet. Pat each log into 2-inch wide strip. Press 1-inch wide indentation lengthwise down the center of each strip using back of spoon. Bake for 17 to 19 minutes or until edges are lightly browned.
Spoon 2 tablespoonfuls fruit spread into indentation of each log; sprinkle with almond slices. Cut diagonally into 1-inch pieces while cookies are still warm. Cool completely on cookie sheet. Repeat with remaining dough, jam and almonds.
