Filling:
Place nuts into a blender and blend until very fine. Add sugar, milk and almond extract then blend well. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Kieflies:
On a floured surface, roll out dough to about 1/8 inch thick. With a pastry wheel or pizza cutter, cut into 1 1/2 inch squares. Place 1/2 teaspoon filling into center of each square. Roll dough over filling diagonally and form into a crescent shape. Place on a greased cookie sheet and brush with beaten egg whites. Bake for 12 minutes or until golden brown. Roll in powdered sugar.
