CRUST:

1/2 c. butter
1 c. flour
2 tbsp. water

FILLING:

1 c. water
1/2 c. butter
1 c. flour
3 eggs
1 tsp. almond extract

ICING:

1/2 c. powdered sugar
1/2 tsp. almond extract
Milk to make a thick drizzle

Cut in the butter and flour (like pie crust) and then add water. Mix and press into a jelly roll pan. Bring to a boil the water and butter in a saucepan. Remove from heat and add the flour all at once, stirring with a wooden spoon until it forms a ball clean from the saucepan. If it is too hot, cool it a bit and then add the eggs, one at a time, stirring until mixture is smooth with a wooden spoon. Add almond extract. Spread carefully on bottom (unbaked) dough layer. Bake at 375 degrees for 45 to 50 minutes until light golden brown. When cool, drizzle with icing.
