Personal Notes:
One day I made this and tinted the icing pink. It was an enormous hit, and people often ask me to make the pink squares. The almond flavour is a real treat.
If you want more squares from one baking use the following recipe for the bottom and double all ingredients in the topping.

3 cups flour
2 Tbsp white sugar or icing sugar
1 1/2 cups margarine or butter
Mix and press into 9"x 13" pan. Bake 15 minutes @ 350° before adding doubled topping. This works for all squares.
