For Waffles:

1.    COAT waffle iron with no-stick cooking spray. Heat waffle iron according to manu­facturer’s directions. Reserve 2 tablespoons sweetened condensed milk for topping.

2.    WHISK eggs in large bowl until fluffy. Blend in remaining sweetened condensed milk, flour, water, oil, baking powder, salt and almond extract just until batter is smooth. Stir in chopped almonds.

3.    POUR a scant 2/3 cup of batter onto center
of hot waffle iron and close lid. Bake about
3 to 4 minutes or until steaming stops. Use
a fork to remove waffle. Repeat with remain­ing batter.

For Topping:

1.    BEAT cream in medium bowl with electric mixer on high speed until stiff peaks form. Add reserved 2 tablespoons sweetened condensed milk and almond extract. Beat
until smooth.

2.    SPREAD each waffle with 1 tablespoon preserves. Top with whipped cream, toasted almonds and fresh raspberries.

*To toast almonds: Place almonds in dry non­stick skillet. Cook over medium heat, shaking pan until nuts are lightly browned. Remove from pan immediately to avoid over-browning.
