Directions:
- In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in milk and vanilla.
- Combine the flour, baking powder and salt; gradually add to creamed mixture and mix well. Refrigerate for 2 hours or until easy to handle.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out dough to 1/8-in. thickness. Cut with a 3-in. bird-shaped cookie cutter. Place 1 in. apart on greased baking sheets. Bake at 350° for 7-9 minutes or until set. Remove to wire racks to cool.
- For frosting, in a small bowl, combine the shortening, confectioners' sugar, milk, extracts and enough water to achieve spreading consistency.
- Frost cookies. Arrange almonds over the bodies and walnuts over the heads. Add chocolate chip eyes. Yield: 7-1/2 dozen.
