ALMOND DANISH PASTRY
I got this recipe from a British friend while working in a bakery in the 1970s. Her dad made it in his pastry shop in the UK. I make this every Christmas and my family and friends all love it. I hope u do as well. It's a relatively easy recipe that tastes and looks like you slaved in the kitchen for hours. It is very rich, decadent, and yummy. I always double this recipe and make 2 big pan fulls. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. get a large cookie sheet ready. Do not grease.
- Make the cream puff dough: Bring water and butter to a boil in medium sized pan. Dump flour in all at once. Beat with a wooden spoon until dough forms a ball. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each one. Add Almond immulsion. Spread mixture evenly over the pastry strips. Smoothness is not necessary.
- Bake for about 50 min to 1 hour or until golden light brown. cool on cookie sheet and leave there to frost as well.
- Make frosting while pastry strips completely cool. Frosting: Mix powdered sugar, butter, salt, and almond emulsion in mixer bowl. beat in milk a little at a time until you achieve a good spreading consistency. Frost pastry with icing and sprinkle liberally with sliced almonds. I leave them out to air dry and to let the frosting set. If you store them in an airtight container they seem to get soggy. Cut into bars about an inch wide. Yummmy
