    List of Ingredients




    * 3 1/2 cups flour
    * 1 teaspoon baking powder
    * 1 cup butter, softened
    * 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
    * 2 cups sugar
    * 1 egg
    * 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    * 1/4 teaspoon almond extract
    * almond bark or dipping chocolate
    * finely chopped nuts or decorative sugars, optional

    Recipe



    Combine flour and baking powder in bowl; stir and set aside. In a large bowl, cream butter and cream cheese until light. Add the sugar and beat until fluffy. Beat in egg, vanilla, and almond extract. Beat until well blended. Gradually add flour mixture, beating on low after each addition. Divide dough into three portions. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight. Work dough into long strands. Cut and form crescents, or make balls and flatten with fork on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake 10 minutes at 350°. Cool cookies before icing.

    Icing: Melt chocolate or white chocolate chips and dip cooled cookies. For festive Christmas cookies or holiday cookies, sprinkle with chopped nuts or decorative sugar if desired.
