INSTRUCTIONS
Roll pastry to a 12-inch square. Cut pastry into 4-inch squares.
Combine 1 egg, almonds, and 2 tablespoons sugar. Spoon about 1 tablespoon
almond mixture in a strip down center of each square. Combine egg yolk and
water; brush one side of each square with yolk mixture. Fold over opposite
side, and press gently to seal. Make even 1-inch cuts along sealed edge,
about 1/4 inch apart; spread to form a comb. Place pastries on an ungreased
baking sheet. Brush remaining egg yolk mixture over pastries. Freeze 10
minutes. Bake at 425°F for 15 minutes or until puffed and golden brown.
Transfer to a wire rack.
Combine powdered sugar and milk; drizzle mixture over hot pastries.
Yield: 9 servings.
