Answers:
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup butter
1/2 cup white sugar
1 egg
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
DIRECTIONS
Cream the butter until light. Gradually add the sugar and beat until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg and almond extract.
Gradually blend in the flour. Cover and chill dough for at least 1 hour.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Roll dough out on a lightly floured surface to 1/8 inch thickness. Cut into desired shapes, using lightly floured cookie cutters. Place cookies on ungreased cookie sheets.
Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 8 to 12 minutes or until golden. Remove to wire racks to cool completely. Decorate as desired.
BUTTER COOKIES
1 cup butter
1 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
1 egg, unbeaten
2 2/3 cups flour
Using an electric mixer at medium speed, cream together butter and sugar, adding sugar gradually. While mixing, add egg, sprinkle in salt and vanilla. Beat well to combine.
Stir in flour and mix only until flour is incorporated - do not over mix.
Dough may be chilled 2-3 hours and used as a roll dough or used as spritz dough and put through a hand cookie press.
Note: Electric cookie presses sometimes require a soft consistency - check your instructions first.
Place on ungreased cookie sheets, sprinkle with sugar, and bake in a pre-heated 375F degree oven and bake 10 minutes or until edges are golden.
Remove to wire rack and allow to cool.

PEANUT BUTTER BUTTERSCOTCH COOKIES
1 cup peanut butter
1/2 cup Nestles Butterscotch morsels
1 cup sugar
1 egg
1/4 teaspoon vanilla
Combine all ingredients. Form dough into balls. Place on a cookie sheet. Press with a fork to flatten.
Bake in a preheated 350F degree oven for 10 minutes, watching carefully as you do not want to overbake or the cookies will be dry.
Remove to cool on wire racks. Store in an airtight container.
This recipe works well with chunky peanut butter, but a nice variation is to use Reese's Peanut butter, omit the butterscotch morsels, then dip the cooled cookies in Baker's dipping chocolate. It's a fun and easy cookie recipe for the kids!
