Directions:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- Allow butter to slightly soften. In medium-sized mixing bowl, mash with back of wooden spoon until creamy.
- Blend in egg yolks, sugar and almond extract.
- Add flour gradually, mixing well.
- Mixture should be firm, yet soft enough to force through cookie press, following directions for making stars, snowflakes, etc. If you don't have a cookie press, the mixture may be rolled into 3/4-inch balls, placed 2-inches apart on an ungreased cookie sheet and flattened to about 1/4-inch thickness with bottom of a glass lightly dipped in flour.
- Decorate cookies with colored sugar or sprinkles, bits of candied cherry, green citrus or other candied fruit. To make colored sugar, mix a drop of red or green food coloring into 1/4 cup of sugar and stir thoroughly.
- Bake Spritz cookies for about 10 minutes or just until light brown around the edges.
