Directions:
Preheat oven to 325º

Spray -or grease- a 10" pie dish (or similar sized cake dish).

In a large mixing bowl, stir 1½ c sugar into the melted butter ( I used oleo). Beat in the eggs, one at a time. Sift the flour and salt onto the batter, add the flavoring and stir well.

Pour the batter into the greased dish and top with sliced almonds. Add the remaining 2 tbsp sugar.

Bake until slightly browned - about 35 minutes.

Personal Notes:
The last time that I made this, I didn't have the sliced almonds so I diced up some pecans and put them on top. It was just as good!
