1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon almond extract |
1/2 teaspoon vanilla |
1 egg yolk |
2 cups all-purpose flour |
colored crystal sugar or decorator icing, if desired |
Directions:
1. In large bowl, combine all ingredients except flour and colored sugar; beat until light and fluffy.
2. Add flour; mix well. Shape dough into 3 disks. Wrap dough in plastic wrap; refrigerate 1 hour for easier handling.
