Repeat with remaining filling and dough. Fold dough over almond filling, pressing unfolded edges to seal. Cut each strip crosswise into 4 pieces using 3-inch Self-Sharpening Paring Knife; place on Stone. Cut 4 slashes in each piece from unfolded edge to center. Curve each piece slightly to fan out and form claw shape. Brush tops with reserved 1 tablespoon beaten egg using Pastry Brush; sprinkle with sliced almonds and sugar. Bake 13-15 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm. 8 rolls.
