HELPPPPP!!!-----Almond Filling?

In this months mag, recipe "Choc-glazed Almond Bars" call out for "Almond Filling", I can only find "Almond PASTE" at the store, but not Almond Filling. Can I make it from Almond Paste? If so, how? Or does anyone have a good Almond "Filling" that willwork in this recipe?

Thanks,
Rick

I thought I was the only one trying to figure out what almond filling is. I'll be watching to see what folks say!

My curiosity got the best of me. I went to google and put in almond filling. I got this recipe for making your own at www.allrecipes.com

INGREDIENTS

• 1/4 cup white sugar
• 5 teaspoons cornstarch
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup milk
• 2 eggs
• 2 tablespoons amaretto liqueur

Combine sugar, cornstarch, and salt in saucepan. In a separate bowl beat eggs and mix together with milk. Stir into dry mixture. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until thick and bubbling. Cook for 2 minutes more. Remove from heat, add almond liqueur and stir well. Cover surface of filling with plastic wrap to prevent film from forming and chill completely before using.

I found this recipe also, but have the almond paste and was wandering if I coul use that? Plus, I've never heard of "Canned Almond filling".
Thanks for the lookup, will keep you posted if I hear anything.

SOLO brand makes a delicious almond filling (along with their apricot, poppyseed, etc.) - not always easy to find, though. I actually buy it at my bulk food store.

You can find it in the grocery stores, if they carry it, in the baking asile next to the pie filling.  I get it at Walmart.  Hopes this helps.
