1/4 teaspoon mace
1/4 teaspoon allspice

10 oz blanched almonds (1 16 oz bag whole almonds, need to take skin off, easiest way is to boil water and dump almonds into boiling water for 20 seconds, drain and rinse in cold water and peel, can also put in large bowl and just grab almonds and squeeze a few times. This will get most skins off quickly. Rest just takes time to do).

In spring form, divide dough in half. Roll or smooth in bottom of spring form. Use 1/2 of almond paste mix for next layer.

Brush this over the top to cover. Then add slivered almonds to decorate (optional).
