DANISH PUFF

Steps:

• 1. Combine the first 3 ingredients, cutting in the butter. Sprinkle the water over the mixture; mix until pastry cleans side of bowl;adding a little more Bisquick if needed. Divide into halves. Pat each half into strip, 10x3-inches, on ungreased cookie sheet(keep the strips at least 3 inches apart). Heat 3/4 cup water and 1/4 c. margarine to rolling boil in 3-quart saucepan. Add almond extract and 1 cup baking mix all at once ;Stir vigorously over low heat until mixture forms a ball, about 1 1/2 minutes. Remove from heat. Beat in eggs, one at a time; continue beating until smooth. Heat oven to 350^. Spread half of the dough on each pastry strip. Bake until topping is crisp and golden brown, 45 minutes. Cool slightly; spread with glaze and sprinkle with sliced almonds or pecans. --- Glaze: Mix all ingredients together until smooth and of desired consistency.
• 2. Note: Before spreading the dough over each pastry strip , spread a little jam on then the dough; or a little mixture of softened cream cheese and powdered sugar.; or your favorite prepared pie filling -I like to use cherry pie filling and a little cream cheese mixture.
