3 eggs |
2 tablespoons granulated sugar |
1/2 teaspoon almond extract |

oil (for frying) |
Directions:
1. In a small mixing bowl cut butter into flour till it resembles small peas.
2. Combine eggs, sugar, almond& orange extracts and salt.
3. Stir into flour mixture.
4. Turn onto a floured board,knead until smooth.
5. Cover and let rest for 30 minutes.
6. Divide dough into 2 equal parts.
7. Roll each half into a 12X6 in rectangle.
