Preparation
Step 1
Preheat oven to 375. Place pastry sheet between sheets of plastic wrap and roll into a 10x1 inch rectangle. Use plastic wrap to transfer dough to a nonstick 14x17 inch baking sheet; remove plastic wrap.
Beat cream cheese, confectioners’ sugar, lemon juice, lemon zest, and almond extract in a medium bowl until fluffy. Spread cream cheese mixture over pastry to within 3 inches of long edges. Sprinkle almonds over cream cheese mixture. Use a knife to make 2 inch long cuts one inch apart along edges.
Bake 28-30 minutes or until golden brown. Cool in pan 15 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.
