BOTERKOEK (DUTCH) 
4 c. flour
2 c. sugar
1 egg
1 lb. butter
1 can almond filling

Cream together sugar and softened butter, then add egg and stir. Add flour a little at a time; stir well. Use 2 pans (11 x 7 x 1 1/2) and divide the batter into fourths. Use 1/4 of the batter in the bottom of each pan. Spread 1/2 can of almond filling in each pan then add another fourth of the batter over that. (May help to press the dough flat in your hands, then press in pan.)

Beat an egg and brush some on top. May also add some sliced almonds. Bake at 350 degrees for about 45 minutes until golden brown on top. Cut into pieces while still warm.
