3 c. all-purpose flour, unsifted
1 c. butter
1/2 c. + 2 tbsp. (5 oz.) can evaporated milk
1 c. chopped walnuts
1/4 c. sesame seeds (optional)
2 eggs
2 c. (12 oz. pkg.) semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 pkg. (8 oz.) cream cheese
1/2 tsp. almond extract
1 1/2 c. sugar
1 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt

Combine chocolate chips, cream cheese and evaporated milk in medium saucepan. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly until chips are melted and mixture is smooth. Remove from heat; stir in walnuts, sesame seeds and 1/2 teaspoon almond extract. Blend well, set aside.

Combine remaining ingredients in large bowl; blend on low speed until mixture is coarse crumbs. Press half the mixture in greased and floured 13 x 9 inch baking dish, spread with chocolate mixture. Sprinkle rest of crumbs over filling. (If mixture softens and forms a stiff dough, pinch off small pieces to use as topping.) Bake at 350 degrees for 35 to 40 minutes or until golden brown. Cool, cut into bars.
