Preheat oven to 325 degrees.

With lightly floured fingers, press dough evenly over the bottom of a 9 inch square ungreased baking pan.
Sprinkle almonds on top and press gently into dough.
Using a sharp knife, score into 16 small squares (4 rows each direction)
Prick each square twice with a fork.
Bake until dough is barely colored and almonds are lightly toasted, about 20 minutes.
