  • 1 cup water
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1 cup flour

Pat dough with hands into two long strips, 12 X 3 inches. Strips should be about 3 inches apart on an ungreased baking sheet.
  2. Mix second amount of butter and water in a saucepan. Bring to a rolling boil. Add almond extract and remove from heat. Stir in flour immediately to keep it from lumping.
