Ingredients
- 1 cup butter or margarine (2 sticks), softened
- 2 packages cream cheese (3 oz. each), softened
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/3 cup toasted almonds, ground
- 2 eggs
- 1 can sweetened condensed milk (14 oz.) (not evaporated milk)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions
- 1. Beat butter and cream cheese in large bowl until well blended; stir in flour, sugar and almonds. Cover; refrigerate about 1 hour.
