Finnish Butter Cake Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan.
• Mix cake mix, water, oil, and eggs together in a bowl; pour into prepared baking pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean, 28 to 30 minutes. Immediately poke holes in the cake using a skewer or straw.
• Pour sweetened condensed milk, hot fudge, and caramel over cake. Allow cake to cool, about 1 hour.
• Spread whipped topping over cooled cake and sprinkle with crushed peanut butter candy. Refrigerate until serving.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Cream together the butter, 1/4 cup of the sugar and almond extract. Stir in the flour. Chill for 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
• Place the dough between 2 large sheets of plastic wrap. Use a rolling pin to roll into a 1/4-inch thick rectangle. Use a sharp knife to cut the dough into strips 2 1/2 inches long and 3/4 inch wide.
• Combine the remaining tablespoon of sugar with the almonds. Use a pastry brush to coat the top of the cookies with egg white. Sprinkle with the almond and sugar mixture. Carefully transfer cookies to an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake to a delicate brown, 17 to 20 minutes.
• Transfer cookies to a rack to cool. Cookies can be frozen in an airtight container, with wax paper between each layer for up to 6 months. Defrost 30 minutes before serving.
