My Mom always made spritz when she had extra egg yolks

Spritz Cookies

1/2 lb butter
2/3 c sugar
3 egg yolks
1/2 tsp almond extract
2-1/2 c flour or more
dash salt

Cream butter, add sugar, then egg yolks. Add almond extract then flour. Extrude from cookie press onto ungreased cookie sheets. Bake in hot oven (400 F) Watch carefully, takes 5-8 min. Makes 10 dozen wreaths (the smallest cookie you can make with a cookie press)
