Shortbread Almond Cookies

Shortbread Almond Cookies - J.Munns

2 c flour
1 c butter
1/2 c heavy cream

Let sit for an hour.

Roll out and cut with little cookie cutter (I like hearts). Poke with a fork to make a 'holey" surface.

Cook until lightly browned. 350 degrees for ????.

Frosting:

3 3/4 c powdered sugar
1/2 c butter
3-4 T milk
almond flavoring

These are a surprise when you taste them. You know (because you made them) that they are almond, but there will be chit-chat about the mysterious flavor. Very Good!
