Sift dry ingredients, cut in shortening as for pie dough. Combine egg,
water and extract. Add to dry ingredients. If dough is too crumbly, add a
little more water. Divide into small balls. Flatten each ball to 1/4"
thick. Press whole almond in center of half of the cookies. Dilute 2
drops of red coloring with 2 drops of water. Dip the end of the chopstick
into the coloring and press into the center of the other half of the
cookies. Bake at 350 degrees for 15 - 20 minutes. These should be cream
colored when done -- not browned.
