How to Make Dutch Treats

Step-by-Step

In a large bowl; cream butter and cream cheese until light and fluffy.
Gradually add the flour. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour or until easy to handle.
Roll into 1 inch balls. Press dough onto the bottom and up sides of ungreased miniature muffin cups; set aside.
For Filling:

In a small bowl, beat eggs until foamy. Add sugar until blended. Beat in the almond paste. Spoon a rounded teaspoonful into each cup; top each with three almond slices.
Bake at 325 for 25 - 30 minutes or until lightly browned and filling is set.

Cool for 10 minutes before removing to wire racks.
