  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1/2 cup shortening
  • 1 cup sifted confectioners' sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 1/2 tsp almond extract
  • 2 1/2 cups sifted all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp red food coloring

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C).
  2. Mix well the shortening and butter, sugar, egg, almond and vanilla. In a separate bowl, mix flour and salt and add to shortening mixture. Divide dough in half.
