On ungreased baking sheet, pat each half into a strip 12 inches by 3 inches. Strips should be about 3 inches apart ( side by side) from each other on the baking sheet.
• 2. STEP TWO: In medium saucepan heat butter and water to rolling boil. Remove from heat and quickly stir in almond extract and 1 cup flour. Stir vigorously over low heat until mixture forms a ball ( about 1 minute). Remove from heat; beat in eggs, all at one time until smooth.
• 3. STEP TWO cont: Divide above mixture in half, spread evenly over strips already on the baking sheet, covering completely.
• 4. Bake about 1 hour or until topping is crisp and brown. Cool. Frost with confectioners sugar glaze and sprinkle generously with nuts. We like toasted sliced almonds, mixed nuts are always great, but your choice. When serving, slices can be cut as thick or thin as you like:))

KRINGLE

Steps:

• Beat the eggs and brown sugar until the mixture triples in volume and is firm.
• Add the butter, vanilla extract and almond meal.
• Mix until smooth.
• Mix the yeast and sugar in warm milk and set aside for 15 minutes.
• Add the flour and butter to the bowl of a stand mixer and whisk until reaching a sandy texture.
• Swap the whisk for the hook attachment.
• Make a well in center of flour and add the beaten eggs.
• Start the stand mixer on low speed and gradually add the milk, sugar and yeast mixture, then add salt, gradually increase the power to medium / high, and knead until you get a non-sticky and soft dough.
• From the moment the dough is wrapped around the hook, kneading should continue for at least 5 to 7 minutes.
• At the end of kneading, the dough should be homogeneous, wrapped around the hook and pulled away from the sides of the bowl.
• Put the dough in a large container, cover with a cloth and let the it rest for 45 minutes in a warm place away from drafts. It should at least double in volume.
• On a floured surface, roll the dough and divide in 6 equal parts.
• Roll each portion into a rectangle with a rolling pin.
• Spread the filling and sprinkle with sliced ​​almonds and chocolate chips.
• Roll the dough on itself tightly and form a long "sausage".
• Cut the roll in half lengthwise.
• Braid the two pieces together and give the braid a crown shape. Shape the braid tightly.
• Cover with a cloth and let the crown rise for 30 minutes in a warm place.
• Preheat convection oven to 350 F (180˚C).
• Brush with egg yolk, chocolate chips and almonds and bake for 20 to 30 minutes.

KRINGLA

Steps:

• Start the night before by mixing together the heavy cream and sour cream in a small bowl. Whisk until smooth, then cover with cling film and refrigerate.
• When ready to start, set the cream mixture out to room temperature. Next, preheat your oven to 475°F (246°C) and line your baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
• In a large bowl cream together the sugar, shortening, and egg yolk.
• Stir in the vanilla extract, baking powder, baking soda, and salt into the cream mixture then transfer the wet ingredients into the creamed sugar. Mix until well combined. Add the flour until completely incorporated into the dough, which should be sticky when done. *You can chill the dough for an hour before handling it to make the next step easier if desired.
• Since the dough is sticky, use a well-floured surface to roll the dough out onto. Pull off roughly 1 1/2-inch ball-shaped portions of the dough and roll them in the flour to coat all sides. Then move them to the side of your working surface where there is less flour and roll them out to a rope shape (approximately 8-9 inches long). Shape the rope into an '8' or 'infinity sign' or fold over like a pretzel shape, or you can also shape them into round coils - but these take longer to bake.
• Place each shaped dough piece onto your prepared baking sheets then bake for 5-6 minutes, or until the bottom just begins to turn a light golden color. *Depending on the thickness of the 'ropes', the cooking time can be longer.
• Remove from the oven when done and allow to cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring to a wire cooling rack to cool completely.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• To make the dough cut 1/2 cup butter into 1 cup flour using a knife or pastry blender. Add water as needed and mix until crumbly, leaving pea-sized chunks. On a floured surface roll the dough out to 3 or 4 inches in width. Place on a rectangular cookie sheet.
• In a small saucepan over high heat, bring 1 cup water and 1/2 cup butter to a boil. Remove from heat and stir in flour; mix until smooth. Beat in eggs one at a time, mixing well after each. Stir in 1 teaspoon almond extract. Spread filling over dough.
• Bake in preheated oven for 55 to 60 minutes. The pastry will fall a little as it cools.
• Meanwhile, combine confectioners' sugar, cream, 1 tablespoon butter and 1 teaspoon almond extract. Spread icing over pastry as soon as it's removed from the oven.
