1 pound butter or margarine
4 cups sifted all-purpose flour
1/4 cup ice water
2 (8 ounce) cans or rolls almond paste
1 egg
1 cup granulated sugar

Roll pastry around fillings to make 8 (6-inch) long cookies. Place on ungreased cookie sheet, then brush with slightly beaten egg white. Repeat until all is used.
