I've made these before however I did notice the difference between the picture and the recipe. Having watched many cooking shows I knew you needed to prick the dough before baking to keep it from puffing up. Aside from that one crucial step that is omitted from the recipe, this is a very tasty dessert, one I will be making this weekend for a (craft) holiday open house my friend and I are having.

First time I used pastry dough. Recipe said nothing about pricking the dough before baking. I was left with a big pillow to try and spread the almond on. Disaster.
