   beat till combined. Add egg yolk, vanilla, and almond extract and beat
   till combined. Beat in as much of the flour as you can with the mixer.
   Stir in any remaining flour with a wooden spoon. If desired, tint dough
   with food coloring.

   making each cookie about 2 inches long. Hold the cookie press at a
   45-degree angle. Bake in a 400 oven for 6 minutes. Cool on rack.
   
   For the filling, heat 1 cup semisweet mint-flavored chocolate pieces and
   2 teaspoons shortening till chocolate is melted. Spread half the
   cookies, flat side up, with about 1 teaspoon filling each. Top with the
   remaining cookies, flat side down. Drizzle the tops of cookies with
   green Cookie Frosting (below). Makes about 48.
   
   Lemon Drops: Prepare dough as directed except substitute lemon extract
   for the almond extract and color cookies with yellow food coloring.
   Force dough through a cookie press using a swirl star template. Bake as
   directed.
   
   * For glaze, stir together 1 cup sifted powdered sugar, 10 drops lemon
   extract, and enough milk to make of drizzling consistency; set aside.

   flat side of half of the cookies.  Top with the remaining cookies, flat
   side down.  Makes about 36.
