This was given to me years ago by a Swedish lady who made these each Christmas. As a little girl, they tasted so good and looked so pretty with the green and red sugar, that when I had my own home, I wanted to carry on the tradition of these little shapes. Pretty and tasty.
Ingredients:
1 cup butter
2/3 cup sugar
3 egg yolks
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon almond extract
2 1/2 cups flour
Directions:
1. Mix well-the butter and sugar.
2. Add the egg yolk, mixing well.
3. Add the rest of the ingredients; mix well.
4. Pack into a cold cookie press.
5. Press them onto a cold cookie sheet.
6. Add any colored sugar at this time.
7. Bake at 400 degrees for 10-12 minute.
