Make pastry (like pie dough) with 2 cups butter and 4 cups flour and a dash of salt. Mix in 1 cup cold water. Refrigerate over night.

Mix 2 cups almond paste, 1 cup sugar, 1 cup coconut, 2 teaspoons almond extract, 4 eggs and 2 egg yolks (saving egg whites). Refrigerate overnight.

Next day:

Roll 1/4 dough 6 inches by 12 inches. Drop 1/4 almond paste mixture in the middle of the length of it. Fold over ends and sides of pastry. Place folded sides down on cookie sheet. Repeat with the rest of the dough. Prick with fork, brush with beaten egg whites. Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes. Cool and cut into bite size pieces. May be frozen before baking.
