Dutch Letter Bars

Oh, so yummy! These were a new recipe I tried from a "Our Iowa" magazine at G'ma Munson's. Katelynn went NUTS over these! (and admittedly, so did I!)

Dutch Letter Bars
1 stick of butter
1 stick of margarine
2 eggs
1 can/roll of almond paste (7-8 ozs.)
2 c. sugar
2 c. flour
additional sugar/almonds to place on top

In a large mixing bowl, cream margarine, butter, and eggs. Beat in the almond paste. (This may be difficult.) Add sugar and flour; mix well. Spread into a greased 9x13 pan. Sprinkle the top with sugar and almonds. Bake at 350* for 30-35 minutes until the top is browned.

**I left the almonds off the top
