For an extra touch of elegance, brush the top of the Boterkoek with a little melted butter before baking. If you don't have almond extract, vanilla extract can be substituted. The Boterkoek is best enjoyed fresh, but can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. For a deeper flavor, brown the butter before creaming it with the sugar. A sprinkle of sliced almonds on top before baking adds a nice textural contrast.

Nov 23, 2024My Boterkoek turned out a little dry. I think I overbaked it. I'll reduce the baking time next time.
