Directions:
Heat oven to 350 degrees. Cut 1/2 cup butter into 1 cup flour.
Sprinkle 2 tablespoons water over mixture; mix with fork.
Round into ball; divide in half. On ungreased baking sheet,

about 3 inches apart.

Bake about 60 minutes or until topping is crisp and brown.
Cool. Frost with confectioners' sugar glaze and sprinkle

2 tablespoons butter, softened, 1 to 1 1/2 teaspoons almond
extract or 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla and 1 to 2 tablespoons
