| I found this in November's WomansDay magazine.
It is a fast, easy dessert, although the almond paste is quite pricey. Perhaps some almond-flavored cream cheese to which an egg yolk or two has been added might be a good substitute (you bakers out there tell me if that is not a good thing to do). Sue Almond-Raspberry Jalousie Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
Heat oven to 375°. Have a baking sheet ready. Roll out pastry on lightly floured surface with floured rolling pin to 12 x 9-in rectangle.
Microwave aalmond paste to soften.
Fold other strip in half lengthwise.
Bake 25 minute or until pastry is puffed and golden.

| That sounds great! I think an 8 oz pkg of cream cheese with one yolk would be a great substitute. I'd add a touch of almond extract too because almond flavoring goes very well with raspberry or even apricot preserves which would also go with this. |

| Sue, I thought it sounded great, too, and happened to have everything on hand (now that's a shocker!!) It was so easy to put together and tastes delicious (I love almond). Mine looks like this. Thanks for posting the recipe! It's a definite keeper. Lori |

| That does sound delicious and it's beautiful too. Lori, did you use the cream cheese suggestion, or did you use almond paste? Jen |

| Thanks, Sue. Jenn, I used the almond paste. I think the cream cheese mixture would be a nice alternative (maybe with a few almonds thrown in?? - Great idea, Sue - I hadn't noticed the cream cheese filling suggestion before!) Lori |
